Answer:
Maximilien Robespierre and Claire Lacombe
Explanation:
Maximilien Robespierre: He was a French statesman, member of the Constituent Assembly, and and the Jacobin Club who was one of the French Revolution's most prominent and influential figures. He campaigned for universal manhood suffrage and the abolition of both clerical celibacy and and slavery. In 1791 Robespierre was an articulate spokesperson for the voiceless people, their unlimited entry to the National Guard, to public offices and the freedom to bear weapons in self-defence. He played a vital role in the uprising that led to the collapse of the French monarchy on 10th August 1792 and the convocation of a National Convention. His objective was to create a single and unified France, equal before the constitution, remove prerogatives and promote direct elections.
Claire Lacombe: She is best known for her part in founding the women's revolutionary group, "the Society of Revolutionary Republican Women". In 1793 she and another Radical, Pauline Léon, founded the party. The group consisted mostly of working-class women who worked in the Paris markets, and were associated with other radical groups. Lacombe fought with the rebels during the storming of the Tuileries in Paris during the insurrection of 10 August 1792. She was shot through her arm but continued battling, winning herself the lifetime sobriquet, "August Tenth Heroine. For her bravery, she was awarded a civic crown.
