| | Charles de Gaulle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | De Gaulle's grandfather was a historian, his grandmother a writer, and his father a professor in private Catholic schools who founded his own private school. | | | De Gaulle's vision stood in contrast to the Atlanticism of the United States, Britain, and NATO, preferring instead a Europe which acted as a third pole between the United States and Soviet Union. | | | De Gaulle's new constitution of the Fifth Republic was able to satiate a lingering feeling for a strong, central, singular political position, which harks back to the days of the monarchy, connected however with a democratic system. |

| | Another problem for de Gaulle was that the United States had already recognized the "Vichy" government and Roosevelt felt he could not legally recognize the Free French as well. | | | Based upon his position as a member of the last legitimate French government, the British recognized de Gaulle as leader of the "Free French" assisting his plan for resistance to the pro-German "Vichy" government in France. | | | He was appointed Under-Secretary for War and was in London, meeting with the British, when France fell. |

| | Furthermore, ever since the days of Adolphe Thiers and the Third Republic, both houses of parliament have met in congress at Versailles, in a special chamber built in the chateau's south wing; that is where, from 1879 to 1953, presidents of the French Republic were elected by the assembled representatives. | | | When he assumed the presidency of the Fifth Republic, De Gaulle felt that the Elysée Palace was unsuited to the role. | | | His advisers suggested alternatives: Invalides, the Louvre, Vincennes, and even Versailles, which De Gaulle himself judged 'somewhat exaggerated'. |
