Monarchists were then active under the Vichy regime, with the leader of the "Action Française" Charles Maurras qualifying as "divine surprise" the overthrow of the Republic and the arrival to power of Marshal Pétain. A few of them, such as Henri d'Astier de la Vigerie, took part in the Resistance out of patriotic concerns. The "Action Française" was then dissolved after the war, but Maurice Pujo founded it again in 1947.
