Although the coup was successful in getting rid of the monarchy for a democracy, it was a democracy only in name. The reign of Terror with Robespierre at it's helm was a time of great fear for the French citizens only to be followed by the military Dictatorship of Napoleon.
Polemics.
Nobody can say it was a failure, or a success. Without this episode, democracy in France would not be what it is now. I think it is wrong to try to judge History.
History is not right or wrong, good or bad with the good guys on one side and the villains on the other side.
Never forget that History is written by the winners. And only time can bring impartiality.
