The revolution became more radical and violent in the 1790s primarily due to the growing influence of the Jacobins, who believed that drastic measures were necessary to protect the revolution from internal and external threats. The onset of war with Austria and Prussia heightened fears of counter-revolution, leading to the Reign of Terror, where the government executed perceived enemies, including King Louis XVI. Economic turmoil, widespread unrest, and the desire for social equality further fueled radicalization, culminating in increased violence as revolutionary leaders sought to maintain control and promote their vision of a new society.
