Committee of Public Safety
After the Terror, there was the Thermidorian reaction, when people basically realized that the Reign of Terror had gone way too far. This reaction was caused by a lessening of military pressure on France, due to several significant French victories. In the Thermidorian Reaction, The Committee of Public Safety, the group who had ruled during the Terror, was destroyed. Its leader, Robespierre, was guillotined. From then on, moderates took leadership of the government.
The Reign of Terror was dominated by the Committee of Public Safety (a group of twelve men who ultimately ruled France at the time). The Terror killed 40,000 to 50,000 people with the goal of eliminating anyone who opposed the new French Republic. To maintain liberty, equality and fraternity, The Committee of Public Safety took bloody measures. They used the guillotine, mass drowning and grapeshot. In the long run, the Reign of Terror exhausted the French Revolution, leading to the Directory which aimed to create more peace in France. After the weak rule of the Directory, Napoleon Bonaparte staged a coup d'etat and eventually became emperor. In conclusion, the Reign of Terror helped lead the way for the end of the Revolution while maintaining the Revolutionary spirit which easily could have been destroyed by France's European enemies and the counter-revolutions. Today, the Reign of Terror is remembered as one of the most horrifying by fascinating parts of the French Revolution.

It was restored by the Directory and ruled by the middle class (bourgeoisie) who reversed many of the pro-revolution policies created by the National Constituent Assembly.
Maximilien Robespierre (Maximilien François Marie Isidore de Robespierre, 1757-1794) was the de facto leader of France during the Reign of Terror, in which the Committee of Public Safety and its Revolutionary Tribunal summarily executed anyone who opposed its policies.
The Reign of Terror is the period, from mid-1793 to mid-1794, when Maximilen Robespierre ruled France nearly as a dictator and thousands of political figures and ordinary citizens were executed. · In July 1794, fearing for their own safety, some members of the National Convention turned on Robespierre. They demanded his arrest and execution. The Reign of Terror, the radical phase of the French Revolution, ended on July 28, 1794, when Robespierre went to the guillotine.

Maximilien Robespierre and he ruled the roost, at least until the tables were turned and he was executed.
They wanted to overthrow the french monarchy (which they did) and institute a new government. Unfortunately the French Revolution was a violent bloodbath and the period that Robespierre ruled is commonly referred to as "the reign of terror"
