Answer 2

• After France became a republic in 1792, the then Jacobin leader, Robespierre, followed a policy of severe control and punishment.
• He was a sort of autocrat himself.
• This led to a reign of terror for the following many years.
• After Robespierre's rule came to an end a directory was formed to avoid concentration of power in one individual.
• Members of the directory often fought among themselves leading to total chaos and political instability.
• This created a political vacuum in France.
• This was a conducive situation and Napoleon Bonaparte took the reign of power as a military dictator.
