Robespierre and The Reign of Terror

The Reign of terror was a violence event that took place fifteen months after the French Revolution. 16000 to 40000 people were killed during the reign of terror. Many famous and highly know people were executed under the blade. They were killed, (their head being chopped under the blade) in front of the people, to show that people who don't support them, they will have to face the same death. French nobles and clergy were not approving this new terror work, as they now had to work and did not received any goods from the peasants.

Maximilien Robespierre tried to erase everything that was related to the old monarchy. Churches were closed as it was one of the major resident which was like a load over the peasant shoulder. He was like a dictator ruler. He was the person who created The Reign of Terror. Government people were scared and tired of his idea of cutting off others head. They did not felt safe. They organized a conspiracy towards him and he was executed the same way, his head was cut off. Then the Reign of Terror was over.

The Reign of Terror was caused because the democracy was not granted to the people.They had to fight for it, and the Reign of Terror was one of the way to gain it. It took lots of death body and blood and have freedom. This execution was carried as they kept on cutting people heads. All the people were scared and was not strong enough to go against him. But, at last they all stand together and executed him!
