Robespierre and The Reign of Terror

"Liberty cannot be secured unless criminals lose their heads".

The quote says it all, people were not satisfied with betrayal and people who are against of the government and state, and they decided to cut their heads for their punishment.Max Robespierre was the main cause for many changes, he closed churches and tried to erase the face of any monarchy , as well of kings and queens, due to the revolution and freedom they have won. The reign of terror was a very difficult time for people who betrayed or didn't agree on the new state, if you did not agree your head would have been chopped off.
