	French Third Republic - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		One of the most surprising aspects of the Third Republic is that it was the first stable republic in France, and the first to win the support of the majority of the population, yet it was never intended to be a long-lasting republic at all.
		When France was finally liberated, few called for the restoration of the Third Republic, and a Constituent Assembly was established in 1946 to draft a constitution for a successor, established as the Fourth Republic that December.
		France's longest lasting régime since before the 1789 revolution, the Third Republic was consigned to the history books, as unloved at the end as it had been when first created seventy years earlier.

	French First Republic - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
