This kills the monarchist.

>Be frog
>Have revolution against unelected monarch who holds all power
>10 years later, have an unelected monarch who holds all power

It's really sad to watch them squirm in trying to claim Napoleon was defending the revolution.

As a French leftist, my sympathies lie with the jacobins and I see Nappy as the tyrant he was, and as the destroyer of the revolution.
But actually the monarch then was democratically elected. The French voted to make him consul for life by a 99% majority.

Come on you know its true.

Or maybe the UE will be the pinnacle of the Revolution.

What is the point of having a revolution against monarchism and then install a regime which the monarchists have desired for centuries?

French republican centralism is exactly what Philip II, Louis XI and Louis XIV had desired, but couldn't do because they were still held back by ancient traditions which also sustained their power.

The revolution was a confused affair. There was no plan that was followed, everyone improvised according to their own conflicting ideas. At first it was not against the monarchy. Then Louis made some mistakes and lost his head.
Then revolutionaries killed and tired each other out and napoleon, supported by the bourgeois and the peasants, could take over.

>Then Louis made some mistakes and lost his head
That is a very nice way of saying treason. But you are right in saying there a lack of coherency as two major factions of Jacobins and Girodins were pushing France in different direction. Plus the war really screwed with everyone

Heard y'all were talking bout killing monarchs

>>2491632
Well his main mistake was getting caught.

Because as
>>2491672
points out, treason is not a crime for monarchs, it's an occupation.
"On ne peut pas régner innocemment. Tout roi est un rebelle et un usurpateur."

>>2491735
Yea I understand in a normal monarchy, the king is the law but the whole goddamn point of the reforms of Ancient Regime was to make a constitutional monarchy, which makes the monarchy lower than the constitution

The monarch IS the law and the country.
His actions were trying to save France from the traitorous rebellion.
