Kingdom of France (1791–92)

The Kingdom of France (the remainder of the absolutist Kingdom of France) was a constitutional monarchy for around a year's time, between 1791 to 1792. After the Insurrection of 10 August 1792, the monarchy was suspended and later abolished by the Legislative Assembly.Fraser, 454

 Background 
From 1789, France had a revolution against monarchy in the government. At the time, a idea of a fair and liberal constitution became more and more popular with the French people, and to the National Assembly.Hibbert, 63 Louis XVI moved to Paris that year, but grew to hate it, planning the Flight to Varennes, which ruined the monarchy's already bad public opinion to be worse.Hibbert, 130

 Constitution 
After the Flight, Louis XVI was forced to submit to the constitution by the National Assembly.Jones, 426 The new constitution was revolutionary and abolished the nobility of France and said all men were to be treated the same before the law.
