∙ 8y agoMaximilien Robespierre was a politician as well as a lawyer. He was born in Arras, Artois, France in 1758. He fought to abolish slavery, and for the right for all men to vote, as well as other causes. Robespierre was a central figure during the French Revolution.
The French Revolution (1789) led to the regicide of King Louis XVI and the declaration of a the First French Republic.
His goal in the French Revolution was to execute all the corruption in France. He had the King and Queen beheaded, and he did public displays of torture or killings. He made theses killings as a sort of show almost. During this time it was called "The Reign of Terror", later Robespeirre was also beheaded.
The French Revolution entered the period of the Terror in 1793-1794. This was a very bloody year seeing to the death of over 40,000 people.
The National Convention was still in charge during the reign of terror, although they had delegated a great number of responsibilities to a group of 12 leaders known as the Committee of Public Safety. Some brief elaboration about this committee: Their ruthlessness had two purposes: to seize control of the revolution and to prosecute all counterrevolutionaries. They said this all in a simple phrase "to make terror the order of the day". The idea of a radical revolution also applies here, with the French longing for no potential adversary that could crush their revolution. The committee was the one who started the Reign of Terror. Robespierre gets that accolade. The Reign of Terror was used as a way to eradicate the "enemies of the revolution." During this stage of the Revolution, the Jacobin Club used the threat of death as a way to maintain political superiority over its rivals.
