Answer:
The period from 1793 to 1794 is referred as the Reign of Terror. Robespierre followed a policy of severe control and punishment. All those who he saw as enemies of the republic like ex nobles, clergy, other members of the political parties, even the members of his own parties who did not agree to his methods they were arrested, imprisoned and then tried by the revolutionary tribunal. If the court found them guilty they were guillotined. A device used to beheaded
criminal, betrayers of the country etc, it is made up of two poles and a blade. It is named after Dr. Guillotin who
invented it.
