EspañolBRUMAIRE
Allegory, unknown author
'Brumaire' was the second month in the French Republican Calendar. The month was named after the French word ''brume'' (mist) which occurs frequently at that time of the year.
Brumaire was the second month of the autumn quarter (''mois d'automne''). It started between October 22 and October 24. It ended between November 20 and November 22. It follows the Vendémiaire and precedes the Frimaire.
In political/historical usage, 'Brumaire' often refers to the coup d'état of 18 Brumaire in the year VIII (9 November 1799), by which General Napoleon Bonaparte overthrew the government of the Directory to replace it with the Consulate.
