Commentary


Médaille attriuée à Georges Levet, un homme politique français né le 13 avril 1834 à Montbrison (Loire) et décédé le 25 juillet 1911 à Montbrison. Fils de Nicolas Levet, député de la Loire, il entre à l'École polytechnique en 1853, puis à l'école des Mines. Il est maire de Montbrison en 1870 et conseiller général en 1871. Il est député de la Loire de 1879 à 1910, inscrit au groupe de l'Union républicaine, puis à la Gauche radicale à partir de 1889.

Armand Fallières, né le 6 novembre 1841 à Mézin (Lot-et-Garonne) et mort le 22 juin 1931 à Villeneuve-de-Mézin (Lot-et-Garonne), est un homme d'État français, président de la République française de 1906 à 1913.
Ministre entre 1880 et 1892, il fut nommé président du Conseil en 1883, mais son gouvernement tombe rapidement. Élu à la présidence du Sénat en 1899 après l'élection d'Émile Loubet à l'Élysée, il lui succède en 1906, après avoir été élu président de la République, pour un mandat de sept ans. Bien qu'étant très respecté, le président Fallières ne sollicita pas un second mandat présidentiel pour se retirer des affaires nationales..

Historical background


III REPUBLIC

(4/09/1870-10/07/1940)

The news of the capitulation of Sedan provokes the revolution of September 4, 1870 in Paris. Proclaimed at the Hôtel de Ville, the Republic is endowed with a provisional government called the Government of National Defense. Threatened on the left by the insurrection of the Commune and on the right by the monarchists, the new regime had a difficult start.. Initially head of the executive power (February 1871), Thiers was responsible for reorganizing the country before choosing its form of government.. He became President of the Republic in August 1871 and, despite his action to liberate the territory, had to leave his post in March 1873 in the face of royalist opposition.. He is then replaced by Mac-Mahon favorable to the restoration of the monarchy but this one is not restored following the question of the flag. The law of the septennat was then put in place in November 1873 and then, in 1875, the fundamental laws were passed which served as the Constitution of the Third Republic.. Parliamentary system, it is characterized in particular by the clear preponderance of the legislative power on the executive power. Anticlerical, the Third Republic makes school free, secular and compulsory but continues the colonial policy for its economic, strategic and moral ambitions. Separation of Church and State was passed in 1905.. The idea of revenge on Germany and significant nationalism are at the heart of the Boulangist crisis, the Panama scandal or the Dreyfus affair of the years 1886-1899, while foreign policy is very active, particularly in Morocco and that the arms race develops. The First World War was expensive for France, which only recovered from 1920 or even 1928 for the coin with the "Poincaré" franc.. The crisis of 1929 is felt only from 1932 but lasts until 1939, a period during which ministerial instability is very important. Wavering in 1934, the Third Republic found a new unitary cement with anti-fascism which enabled the Popular Front to come to power in 1936.. But, paralyzed against Germany, France was then bogged down in a "phony war" and then suffered one of the greatest defeats in its history in June 1940.. Gathered in the National Assembly in Vichy on July 10, 1940, the Chambers, although elected in 1936, voted full powers to Pétain in a sort of collective suicide by 569 votes for, 80 votes against and 18 abstentions..
