The Reign Of Terror
The Reign Of Terror lasted 10 month during the french revolution. Everybody wanted democracy but it wasn't happening. This was a war of dictatorship. during this time a couple amount of men tried to govern the country of France. But Maximilien Robespierre ended up over powering everybody else and ended up dominating. his biggest competition was Danton. Danton was good at public speeches but Robespierre was hard working and ambitions. Robespierre believed in Rousseau work. Rousseau was a great enlightenment thinker. The leaders wanted to raise a new army.
In 1793 they passed a law in France called "the law of suspects". This was a law that eliminated those they believed was a traitor enforced by the revolutionary people. Thousands of people died just because they were suspects they was no need of evidence. Their heads were chopped off. This was france's way of solving problems.
