AHC: Collapse the French Third Republic and replace it with another Enlightenment

Yeah they there was a deadlock between the Legitimist and Orleanist.
The Legitimist candidate was a old fart who wanted the ancien regime back he even refused the tricolor flag fortunately he has no heir meaning when he died the Legitimist and Orleanist claim merged but it was too late since the assembly nationnal no longuer had a monarchist majority. If the count of Chambort die early we could see the instoration of a constitutional monarchy in France. What would be the effect on WWI (if it happend as per OTL) is anyone guess. But that would be an interesting story.

Check out my post a few spaces upthread - there was an opportunity, however slim, of restoring the monarchy in 1899...
