[[Charles Maurras]] quickly joined ''Action française'' and became its principal ideologist. Under the influence of Maurras, ''Action française'' became [[monarchist]], [[counter-revolutionary]] (objecting to the legacy of the [[French Revolution]]) and anti-democratic, and supported [[integralism]] and [[Catholicism]]. The [[Dreyfus affair]] gave some Catholics the impression that Catholicism is not compatible with democracy. Therefore, they regarded ''Action française'' as rampart of religion and the most fitting expression of the church doctrine regarding society.<ref name="Rémond 2006 8"/>

In its early years, ''Action française'' tried to influence public opinion and to spread its ideas. For example, it created related organisations, such as student groups.<ref name="Judaken 2005 1" /> The political organisation of the movement, the Ligue d'Action Française, was launched in the spring of 1905, as was the Action Française Federation of Students, directed by [[Lucien Moreau]].<ref>{{citation|title=Les débuts de l'Action française (1899–1914) ou l'élaboration d'un nationalisme antisémite|language=fr|last=Joly |first=Laurent |journal=Revue Historique |volume=308|issue=3 (639) |date=July 2006|page=701|publisher=Presses Universitaires de France|jstor=40957800}}</ref> ''L'Institut d'Action française'' was created in 1906 as an alternative institute for higher education.<ref name="Judaken 2005 1">{{cite encyclopedia |last=Judaken |first=Jonathan |editor=Richard S.

Its members also served as a paramilitary wing, providing security for meetings and engaging in street violence with political opponents. The newspaper's literary quality and polemical vigor attracted readers and made Maurras and the movement significant figures in French politics. By 1914, ''Action française'' was the best structured and the most vital nationalist movement in France.<ref name="Judaken 2005 1" />
