The Reign of Terror, or The Terror (French: la Terreur), refers to a period during the French Revolution after the First French Republic was established.

Several historians consider the "reign of terror" to have begun in 1793, placing the starting date at either 5 September, Juneor March (birth of the Revolutionary Tribunal), while some consider it to have begun in September 1792 (September Massacres), or even July 1789 (when the first lynchings took place),but there is a consensus that it ended with the fall of Maximilien Robespierre in July 1794.

Between June 1793 and the end of July 1794, there were 16,594 official death sentences in France, of which 2,639 were in Paris.The Reign of Terror took place during the brief period of rule of the urban workers, or 'sans-culottes' , called the Jacobin government because of their alliance with the political Jacobin Club

Answer:

Robespierre introduced the "Reign of Terror". This is the time from 1793 to 1794 when Robespierre imposed strict control and punished those who rebelled against him. People who were against his policies such as ex-noblemen, clergymen, other political party members or even his own party members were arrested and put up for trial. If found guilty, the prisoners were beheaded using a device called guillotine. This device had a couple of blades and a pole. It was named after its inventor Dr. Guillotin.
