Describe about the Reign of Terror in France.
Answers
The Reign of Terror or The Terror (French: la Terreur) is the label given by some historians to a period during the French Revolution.
Several historians consider the "reign of terror" to have begun in 1793, placing the starting date at either 5 September,[1] June [2] or March (birth of the Revolutionary Tribunal), while some consider it to have begun in September 1792 (September Massacres), or even July 1789 (when the first decapitations took place),[3] but there is a general consensus that it ended with the fall of Robespierre in July 1794.[1][2]
Between June 1793 and the end of July 1794, there were 16,594 official death sentences in France, of which 2,639 were in Paris.[2][4] However, the total number of deaths in France was much higher, owing to death in imprisonment, suicide and casualties in foreign and civil war.
The Reign of Terror or simply The Terror was a period of about 11 months during the French Revolution. During this time, French people who did not support the revolution were executed at the guillotine. The Reign of Terror was started on 5 September, 1793. ... Robespierre was one of the last to be guillotined.
