The military proved the tipping point in France as they did in so many other nations when they stepped in. It is the rare people who can stand against a motivated national military. And the military was very motivated. They had been watching the politicians at work long enough to know where every body was buried, and they exhumed every one of them. Including those pointed at the House of Bonaparte. That earned the military brass few friends on either side of the government impasse, but the French citizenry thought they walked on water.
