The Second Directory

After the failure of vendemier and qibron bay expedition, conservatives their only chance to win was at the ballot box. But it became clear that many neo jacobins didn't want to become a loyal opposition inside the government. And so the directory had to make its third focus swing back to smack down the left again. The directorial terror that followed was then aimed at both the left and the right. It seems kind of crazy that the directory was able to hold on to power this long while so many active enemies from across the political spectrum were trying to kill it.
