Consulta of Lyon
The Consulta of Lyon was an assembly of some 450 delegates of the Cisalpine Republic convened by Napoleon Bonaparte at Lyon from December 1801 to January 1802. It adopted a new constitution, transformed the Cisalpine into the Italian Republic and elected Napoleon its president, with Francesco Melzi d'Eril as vice-president. It was a step towards the Kingdom of Italy proclaimed in 1805.
