In the winter of 1871, the Government of National Defense signed an armistice with the Prussians, who were victorious in the war, and their leader, Kaiser Wilhelm I, established the German Republic, taking part of France's lands in the process. In response, the government was disbanded and the Third French Republic was officially formed as the successor of the Second French Empire. However, most of the government officials maintained a monarchist stance and, as a result, another Committee of Public Safety was formed to respond to such debates. In turn, another Paris Commune was initiated, but it was short-lived and the republic survived the national crisis.[3]
