The reign of terror was time were no one was safe. People who tried to revolt would get executed by getting there heads get cut off by a guillotine this was a very famous french killing device. One man named Max Robespierre he was a ruthless dictator he didn't want no one to take power. He was the one who decided to take out the queen Marie Antoinette. In front of everyone. Also king Louis the VI.
This was all started because people didn't want no one to over throw the government. Gangs were getting started because people had as much power as the anyone who use to have more power. To get executed it only took one accusation and you could go to the guillotine. This created controversy because you could friends with Max and go to guillotine for no reason. This made France a bad place to live so the people decided to over throw Max. They arrested him and then they executed him. This was the end of the reign of terror. This was a good time a new type of government was created and it was called the Directory controlled by five men. Out of this came one General Napoleon.
