who led the reign of terror in france
Reign of Terror Several historians consider the "reign of terror" to have begun in 1793, placing the starting date at either 5 September,[1] June [2] or 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 beheadings took place),[3] but there is a general consensus that it ended with the fall of Robespierre in July 1794.[1][2]
