What does 'Terror' mean in connection with the French Revolution?

The period called "The Terror" in the French Revolution lasted for 10 months in 1793/94. At the time the revolutionaries were in trouble fighting other nations bent on restoring the old order and the French king, and they had to deal with massive risings against them within France itself, especially in the region called the Vendee. Their answer was to institute a reign of terror which included wholesale killing of everyone even vaguely suspected of being an enemy of the State or of the working classes. Almost 17,000 people were executed by the guillotine. The risings within France were at the same time put down with great ferocity and manslaughter. The Terror period ended when the Government's informal leader Robbespierre started to threaten that he would 'expose' many Parliament members as traitors and would have them executed. The Parliament then immediately voted him out of office. Together with his supporters he was taken to one of the kangaroo courts that had condemned so many innocents in the past year, and was duly sentenced to die at the guillotine the next day.
