You are a fucking idiot. It tokk the death of Robispierre to end HIS reign of terror. Afterwards the reign of terror continued as enemies of robispierre who were too cowardly to do anything while he was alive, waited till he was shot and gullitened until they got their revenge on robispierre's followers. This went back and forth until a young italian by the name of napoleon took power

Woken up on the wrong side of the bed, have we? :roll: There are most likely two options here: either the Australian school system is incredibly poor in its ability to teach analytical thinking, or you've already dropped out and have googled the topic instead (I'll opt for this option as you've managed to misspell "Robespierre" three times consecutively).
A question for you, Mr. "Novak's mate": What WAS the Reign of Terror and how long did it last? There is only
one Reign of Terror in reference to the French Revolution: that which began in June 1793 and ended in July 1794 with the Thermidorian Reaction and the so-called "White Terror".
I also find it laughable that you seem to snort at the idea that Danton's death played a major role in Robespierre's execution and the end of the Reign of Terror. Please read up on the role Danton's support played in Robespierre's campaign.
I also find it interesting that it is simply this one point that was attacked where my argument was concerned. Quite frankly, "Novak's mate", you seem like quite the sheep to me. I can't help but wonder if you truly care about the cause you claim to support. If you did you'd be well aware of the consequences and counterproductiveness of some of your statements (ironic that Robespierre's campaign seems to be the source of this argument). I'd also expect someone with far more foresight and analytical skills. Do you take greater pleasure in the idea of a plausible end result, or in the "excitement" of being the "outsider"? In reality you come off as being identical to the great majority of the ignorant masses.
