The Coup d'État of Brumaire. Sieyès and Roger-Ducos resigned from the Directory, and Barras then resigned under duress. The Directory could not function with only two members and was disbanded. Sieyès and Roger-Ducos, supported by Napoleon and his brother Lucien Bonaparte (president of the Council of 500), convinced the councils to name Sieyès, Roger-Ducos, and Napoleon as provisional consuls and establish a commission to draft a new constitution.
