This is a quotation from the consuls a few days after their coup d'état. People of France: Swear with us to be true to the Republic one and indivisible, founded on equality, liberty, and the representative system. - The Consuls of the Republic, November 12, 1799 In this quotation, the Consuls of the Republic ask the people of France to start the French Revolution. support the Reign of Terror. unite under the new constitution. restore the monarchy.

The correct answer is C) unite under the new constitution.

In this quotation, the Consuls of the Republic asked the people of France to unite under the new constitution.

During the coupe of Brumaire, the Directory in France was defeated in November 1799. That is when the Consulate became the form of government in France, during those difficult times of armed conflicts and the death of many French people. Napoleon Bonaparte was a consul before becoming an Emperor of France, and then the members of the government asked the French people to unite under the new constitution.

The consulate was the government that ruled France from 1799 to 1804, when the Napoleonic Empire began. During this time period, Napoleon Bonaparte formed himself as the de facto ruler of the country. The government of Napoleon was more "autocratic and centralized" than before, although it was still not an empire.

The "political and cultural legacy" of Napoleon is known as one of the most famed and controversial in human history. The quote is ironic; therefore, because being a representative government, the consulate was close to dictatorship.
