The form of government established in France during the French Revolution in 1792 was the French Republic. Following the end of the monarchy and the execution of King Louis XVI, a radical vision of democracy took hold, leading to the establishment of a republican government characterized by principles of liberty, equality, and fraternity. The National Convention, which governed during this period, aimed to create a new political order free from aristocratic privilege. This radical shift marked a significant turning point in French history and influenced revolutionary movements worldwide, despite subsequent political turmoil and the rise of Napoleon.
