Whether it's a Hail Mary at the end of a football game or guessing at the last few answers of a test when time is called, sometimes desperate times call for desperate measures. After the first few years of the French Revolution, France certainly found itself in desperate times. While a constitution had been written and some progressive, Enlightenment-inspired reforms were being implemented, the government was again overthrown in 1792, the king was still imprisoned, and costly wars with Austria and Prussia were going poorly. The desperate measures the French undertook at this juncture resulted in the execution of the king and thousands of others in what has become known as the Reign of Terror.
