National Assembly (1871)
The National Assembly (French: Assemblée nationale) was a French legislative body elected on 8 February 1871 in the wake of the Armistice of Versailles signed on 26 January 1871 at the end of the Franco-Prussian War. It sat in Bordeaux until 20 March 1871, when it moved to the Palace of Versailles. The cabinets which issued from it governed France from 19 February 1871 to 31 December 1875.
