At the start of the French Revolution in 1789, the Jacobins were a fairly small club. The members were like-minded deputies of the National Assembly. However, as the French Revolution progressed, the club grew rapidly. At the height of their power, there were thousands of Jacobin clubs throughout France and around 500,000 members.

In 1793, the new French government was facing internal civil war and was being attacked by foreign countries. The Jacobins were afraid that the revolution was going to fail. Behind the leadership of Robespierre, the Jacobins instituted a state of "Terror." Under this new rule of law, they would arrest, and often execute, anyone suspected of treason. Thousands of people were executed and hundreds of thousands were arrested.
The famous radical journalist Jean-Paul Marat was a Jacobin. He was assassinated by a Girondist sympathizer named Charlotte Corday while he was taking a bath. The Jacobin motto was "Live free or die." They set up a new state religion and a new calendar. The term "Jacobin" is still used in Britain and France to describe certain branches of politics.
