Maximilien Robespierre ruled first, as he was a leading figure during the French Revolution and played a crucial role in the Reign of Terror from 1793 until his downfall in 1794. Napoleon Bonaparte rose to power later, becoming the First Consul in 1799 and later Emperor of the French in 1804. Thus, Robespierre's influence and leadership in revolutionary France occurred prior to Napoleon's ascent.
