 | | The period of the French Revolution in the history of France covers the years between 1789 and 1799, in which republicans overthrew the monarchy and the Roman Catholic Church perforce underwent radical restructuring. |
 | | The Assembly replaced the historic provinces with eighty-three départements, uniformly administered and nearly equal to one another in extent and population. |
 | | On November 9, 1799 (18 Brumaire of the Year VIII) Napoleon staged the coup which installed the Consulate; this effectively led to his dictatorship and eventually (in 1804) to his proclamation as emperor, which brought to a close the specifically republican phase of the French Revolution. |
