National Constituent Assembly (France, 1945)

The French Constituent Assembly of 1945 (Assemblée constituante française de 1945), also referred to as the First National Constituent Assembly, was a Constituent assembly elected after the 1945 French legislative election to draft a draft Constitution to be approved by the French people via referendum. This referendum, held on May 5, 1946, resulted in the rejection of the proposal, prompting the organization of new elections for a Second Constituent Assembly of 1946.
