Homework Help Forum: Socials=Ms.Sue

Ms. Sue at the end of my other previous post you said that my book must have that info as well, and this is what the last paragraph of my book says. Few people dared stand up to this government.(It's talking about the revolutionary government). Danton for ex. was beheaded in 1794. Before his death, he predicted that Robespierre would soon follow. He told the executioner to hold his severed head high so the crowd could look at it. It was, as he said, "worth seeing." Other people who challenged Robespierre even the leaders of sans-culottes were guillotined. It is estimated that over 37 000 people were guillotined during the reign of terror. Now, I just need help putting this in a shorter form.

Get away from the computer and jot down notes about what you think were the most important events of the Reign of Terror. You must include the guillotine and the people who were beheaded. How did Robespierre die? Once you've jotted these ideas down, you'll be ready to write answers to these questions in your own words. I look forward to reading your answers.
