The Jacobins were a pivotal political faction during the French Revolution, advocating for radical reforms and the establishment of a republic. They were instrumental in the establishment of the National Convention and played a key role in the Reign of Terror, promoting measures to eliminate counter-revolutionaries and protect the revolution from perceived threats. Under leaders like Maximilien Robespierre, the Jacobins pushed for social equality, secularism, and the redistribution of wealth, significantly shaping the revolutionary agenda and its outcomes. Their influence ultimately declined after Robespierre's fall in 1794, leading to a shift towards a more moderate phase of the revolution.

The radicals of the Assembly who were considered "defenders of the revolution and the people themselves" were known as the Jacobins. They played a significant role during the French Revolution, advocating for republicanism and social justice. The Jacobins were influential in promoting revolutionary ideals and were often associated with the more extreme measures of the Revolution, including the Reign of Terror.
No, Marquis de Lafayette was not a general during the 1794 phase of the French Revolution. By that time, he had lost his influence and had fled France in 1792 due to the escalating violence and radicalization of the revolution. Lafayette had initially supported the revolution but became increasingly disillusioned with its direction and the rise of the radical Jacobins. In 1794, he was in exile, and his role in the revolution had effectively ended.
