Describe in brief the reign in terror |
| Answer» The period from 1793 to 1794 in France is called the Reign of Terror. Robespierre, the head of the Jacobin Club, followed the policy of severe control and punishment. Clergymen, nobles and people who were considered enemies to the republic were guillotined. Even he ordered the killing of his own party members who did not agree to his methods and ways. Robespierre followed his policies so strictly that even his supporters turned against him. Finally, he was convicted by a court in July 1794 and was guillotined. | |
