As the radical Jacobin club gained more power in Paris, the idea of overthrowing the monarchy became more feasible. Led by republicans such as Danton, Desmoulins and Robespierre, the Paris commune became increasing influential in the movement for democracy in France.
Jacobin club was a political club that came into existence in the aftermath of French revolution. It derived its name from the convent of St. Jacob. The members of this club were mostly artisans like shoemakers, watch makers, small shopkeepers, daily wage workers and servants. Maximillian Robespierre was their leader. The group planned an insurrection in 1792 because of high food prices and short supplies of food items. They also stormed into king's palace and held the king hostage. Elections were later held with voting rights to all men of above 21 years. The National Convention was the body that abolished the monarchy and declared France as a republic on September, 21 1792. The king Louis sixteenth and his wife queen Marie Antoinette were executed.
