Directoire

French Directory, November 2, 1795 - November 10, 1799

The Executive Directory (French: Directoire exécutif) was a body of 5 single-male Directors that held executive power in France following the Convention and preceding the Consulate. The period of this regime (November 2, 1795 until November 10, 1799) commonly known as the Directory (or Directoire) era, constitutes the second to last stage of the French Revolution.

The directory system of government was also used in several French-dominated regions of Italy.
