hey there
Maximilian Robespierre was the leader of Jacobins club which led a successful revolt and came to power. The period from 1793 to 1794 was know as "Reign of terror". This was because of the harsh measures taken by Robespierre to suppress opposition .

The government was significant in many ways. Being the first government of it's kind, as France shifted from monarchy to republic, it was rejoiced by the people. And obviously there was opossition too.

Robespierre took opossition seriously and guillotined them. Guillotine is a device in which blade is hanged in between a frame and released for execution. The execution was elegantly staged and presented to the public. He took it too far that even his supporters began doubting his methods. Any voice against him was shut.

Plus the measures taken during the time to establish equality were unwelcomed
Hope it helped you

Maximillan Robespiere was the leader of the Jacobins club which was the most prominent political club during the french revolution. After Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette were beheaded at place de la concorde, Robespierre declared him as the ruler. He ruled from 1793 to 1794. This period is known as REIGN OF TERROR.

His reign is called REIGN OF TERROR because he used extreme policies and severe punishment. Some measures he took were- He guillotined the people who went against him. He banned the costier white flour and asked everyone to eat Pain dè egalìte, a loaf made of whole wheat. He also abolished any term like Monsieur or madame and declared that every person should be addreses as people. He converted the churches into baracks and workhouses. He was tried and was guillotined on 28 July 1794 and the REIGN OF TERROR ended.
