HEY
HERE IS YOUR ANSWER

In the history of France, the First Republic, officially the French Republic, was founded on 22 September 1792 during the French Revolution. The First Republic lasted until the declaration of the First Empire in 1804 under Napoleon, although the form of the government changed several times. This period was characterized by the fall of the monarchy, the establishment of the National Convention and the Reign of Terror, the Thermidorian Reaction and the founding of the Directory, and, finally, the creation of the Consulate and Napoleon's rise to power.

Actually, that depends on when you are talking. The first French "republic" arose from the French Revolution. Although that Revolution is typically described as starting in 1789 (either with the calling of the Estates General or with the storming of the Bastille), the "republic" arose only after Louis XVI attempted escape and capture 1791 and the formal abolition of the monarchy in 1792. Although "formally" declared a republic [to compare it with the non-autocratic American republic], this "republic" could actually be considered a series of dictatorships (the National Convention, the Committee for Public Safety, the Directorate, the Consulate) as compared to the electoral concepts which are now considered to be the heart of a "republican" system. The "first republic" formally terminated when the "first consul," Napoleon, declared himself emperor. 

After the final defeat of Napoleon at Waterloo, the Bourbon monarchy was restored to the French throne. In 1830 a new revolution occurred, which installed a replacement king (the Orleanist Louis-Phillipe) and instituted a "constitutional monarchy" as opposed to a "republic." 

Louis-Napoleon Boneparte was elected the President of this "second republic" in 1848, which he overthrew in a coup in 1851 (becoming emperor, Napoleon III) of the second French Empire. 

Following the defeat of Nazi Germany, a new French constitution was drafted and the "fourth French republic" came into existence in 1947.

 The army threatened to parachute people into "metropolitan" France unless DeGaulle was named President. DeGaulle would agree to that step only upon the issuance of a new constitution, which substantially increased the power of the French President. To distinguish this new constitutional scheme, this new constitutional format is said to have given rise to the "Fifth French Republic."
