The period from 1793 to 1794 is referred to as the Reign of Terror. Robespierre followed a
policy of severe control and punishment. All those whom he saw as being 'enemies' of the
Republic- ex nobles and clergy, members of other political parties, even members of his own
party who did not agree with his methods- were arrested, imprisoned and then tried by a
revolutionary tribunal. If the court found them 'guilty', they were guillotined. The Guillotine
is a device consisting of two poles and a blade with which a person is beheaded. It was
named after Doctor Guillotine who invented it.
