please describe in at least one paragraph (5 sentences) how Robespierre started killing in the name of utopia and also how people who followed expanded on his ideals

Respuesta :

Maximilien Robespierre believed that he was doing a justice to France by killing the people he did.

Maximilien Robespierre was one of the leading figures in the French Revolution and after some years of skillful maneuvering, he ended up being arguably the most powerful figure in France.

He believed that the ideals of the Revolution should be absolute and that anyone going against them should be executed. His followers followed suit and this resulted in the number of executions in France rising to alarming levels.

Eventually he was deposed and executed because:

  • people thought he displayed too little care for human life
  • he seemed to believe he was untouchable

In conclusion, Maximilien Robespierre went to the grave thinking he did what was best for France but the blood of the many he sent to their deaths beg to differ.
