The French Revolution was threatened by, among others, PRUSSIANS and NOT Persians.

Robespierre's head was not ultimately interred. It was bisected and then 'plastinated' by the anatomist Jean Honore de Fragonard, who took great care to preserve Robespierre's eyes -- his most intimidating features. At least one half of the head of Robespierre was transported to the U.S., to the University of Pennsylvania, by French doctor Alexander Chovet.
They'd had enough of him, tougher types than him (like the military) weren't going to cheerfully go to the guillotine just for saying something he didn't like, then when he wanted to institute his own religion, they knew he had gone mad.
There's a saying that goes: "Fanaticism is the act of doubling your efforts after losing slight of your goal" Robespierre took that practice to its logical extreme. By the time he declared his intent to send several unnamed collaborators to the guillotine during the 8 Thermidor Convention, he had established himself as an intoletant zealot who handed out death sentences the way Louis XIV handed out party invitations. He pretty much signed his own death warrant right then and there because nobody present felt like sticking around to see who he had in mind, since at that point he could've literally meant any one of them. One hell of a way to unite people, I guess...
Some historians have written that Robespierre's jaw was wrecked because he had tried to commit suicide the night before. In any case, a much deserved way to go. And I don't even believe in the death penalty! Hard to feel sorry for him, though. He turned himself into a monster.
Another version claims a young National Guardsman ordered Robespierre to surrender. He refused to be taken into custody. The soldier fired. The bullet shattered Robespierre's jaw, which a doctor then bandaged to hold in place. Though known as a braggart, the soldier got a promotion and even on his deathbed, reaffirmed his deed. What we do know is Robespierre endured horrific pain till the blade fell about 7 pm, July 28.
Robespierre lost touch with humanity during those turbulent years. Camille Desmoulins, an old college buddy, criticized Robespierre in a news rag. Robespierre had been best man at Camille's wedding, stood Godfather to his infant son. Camille's wife pleaded hysterically to save him. Robespierre slammed the door in her face, had both beheaded (leaving an orphan toddler).
Robespierre is actulally a quite interesting case. Although he surely was one of the more radical figures in the French revolution but he certainly wasn' t the only one that decided everything that happened. The fact is that due to him dying at that young age he didn't had the time to write any memoirs reflecting on his time during the revolution. Everything we know about him is solely based on the about 11-12 volumes of political texts and speaches he left and when studied these can be interpreted in many different ways depending on the researcher who studies them. These last few years many new studies have been made to paint a more blanced picture of him but it remains kind of an incomplete one. Like many of his contemporaries we can see that is views change during that whole period of heated debates, beginning with being opposed to capital punishment and later judging that the actions of King Louis the XVI did merit the dead penalty due to being judged as high treason to the French population. He also wasn't the only one to decide the fate of the king as he was judged by the complete Convention National during a trial that lasted 16 days after which the majority of the members of the Convention National voted for the dead penalty. It also became kind of a sport between all the factions to get their political opponents beheaded. It is known that with his influence Robespierre actually managed to avoid the beheading of about 70 members of a more moderate faction. Not that they were really thankfull to him afterwards. At the end of is life he was one of the members of the Comité de salut public whose role was to protect the new republic against the monarchist coalitian of European nations that waged war against the Republic and counter revolutionary forces within France. The Convention national would send representatives on mission to different departments in France to maintain law and order and these representatives had absolute power and some of them ended up abusing that power and doing horrible things far away from Paris. It is thought that these representatives knew that Robespierre would in fact not agree with these misdeeds so they made sure to eliminate him before he would have been able to expose their acts. So he ended up beheaded and these rogue representatives never had to confess their misdeeds and later on some of them held confortable governmental positions. So i don't really agree to paint him as the only absolute villain of the revolution as the story is very complex and his political opponents didn't hesitate to villify him after his death. If you ever go to Paris i can only recommend to absolutely visit the Musee Carnavalet as it exposes many relics, paintings and documents of the more turbulent times of French history
Reminds me of the Russian revolution and the efforts of the red Lenin, Stalin and Trotsky (+ Beria and others) to eliminate all opposition to THEIR revolution.
Robespierre truly believed in justice and freedom. As time went on, though, he so feared a counter-revolution that he ruled with an iron fist. Nothing mattered except establishing a "republic of virtue", following his principles. He either didn't know or didn't care, that many innocents were killed for trivial reasons. (A neighbor could rat on you).
He did end slavery in France, which Napoleon restored (along Napoleon with giving Pols their own country back until the victors took it away again). People say not to look for heroes in history, don't go looking for cartoon supervillains either.
@@steveshapiro326 He knew and didn't care. The problem with zealots is they're never satisfied that their idea of 'perfection' has been achieved, they keep upping the anti. Robespierre was a cold fish who placed intellectualism above common morality. I have to wonder if in his last few moments on earth he recognized his massive contributions to the Reign of Terror, but probably not.
There’s a really creepy recreation of his head that was done recently. I am sure you can find it in an Internet search. His blue eyes are the worst. They made the recreation based on his wax death mask
There was no (real) wax death mask of Robespierre; they are all fake because Robespierre's body and head was imediatly destoyed with lime. The creepy recreation didn't look like any of his portrait of him. That's just another Mme Tussaud fantasy
during, yes, there were a lot of social programs involved in helping people get food (like the equality bread stuff). afterwards, not so much. the damn laissez-faire people messed it up. also, it wasn't "robespierre's reign". he never was the ruler of france at any point.

The irony is that a man that couldn’t stop talking, died with a broken jaw, unable to pronounce a single word……anyway, one thing you forgot to mention is that he opened the door to Napoleon to enter the revolution. This is a key moment in history, mostly ignored by desk historians…..

We also forget that Napoleon was a close friend on Washington, Jefferson, John Adams and Franklin. In fact, we have the south of the country thanks to Napoleon who sold the land to Jefferson. And Napoleon’s nephew, Napoleon III helped us to buy Alaska, so the ties were very closed until War War 2. That’s why I made the comment……sorry for the long explanation…..
Too much information in rapid succession for me to follow. I would need to research for details. That’s a story I’d rather not know. But for a man who had orchestrated so much terror, it seems a well earned end.
Jacob is an Ethiopian prince in Europe. He motivate Christians kings to fillow his ideology. He is known by name Zaga Christ. Jacob father murdered by rival then Zaga went to his mother country origin Europe.. His mother is from portugal descedant who came during religious war in Ethiopia..
It's a pity that no mask was made of Robespierre's head with his jaw shot off. Maybe there was some description of the injury recorded by the surgeon who created the splint or by one of his assistants? If so, then there must be some sculpture or picture which was made at time, depicting Robespierre during his final day.

@@greasyflight6609 I'm saying that as far as monsters go, Robespierre was chump change. He has earned eternal hate by the French for doing relatively nothing, whereas Napoleon is responsible for killing 100's of thousands of the French people and is a national hero. The dichotomy is stupidly human.
The narrator claims "the Austrians and the Persians" posed a threat to revolutionary France. This is big blunder, quite inexplicable. She meant the Prussians, not the Persians! Oh, dear...
Robespierre’s terror was necessary. The old ruling aristocracy, domestic and foreign enemies (terrorists, rebels, spies) of the new republic must be suppressed in order to prevent the defeat of the revolution and the restoration of the old society. You say that terror is the principle of despotic tyrants. Does Robespierre then resemble a despotic tyrant? Yes, the “tyrant’s” despotic terror, terror as the sword that gleams in the hands of the heroes of liberty as a weapon against reactionaries, does resemble that of a despotic tyrant. He is right, as a despot, to subdue by terror the enemies of liberty, as a founder of the Republic. The government of the revolution is liberty's despotism against tyranny. That terror was nothing other than justice. It was a consequence of the general principle of democracy applied to the republic’s most urgent needs. If you do not understand this then you have no understanding of the tasks of a revolution. A revolution is not a dinner party, or writing an essay, or painting a picture, or doing embroidery; it cannot be so gentle. A revolution is an insurrection, an act of violence by which one class overthrows another.
The term Jacobian came from son of Jacob who was an Ethiopian prince who asked military assistance but later became a refugee in Europe. He motivate European Christians kings to fillow his ideology. Absolute monarchism. He is known by name Zaga Christ. Jacob father murdered by rival half brother Susonios then Zaga the son went to his mother country origin Europe.. His mother is from portugal descedant who came during religious war in Ethiopia. His another twin brother went to South Africa and his trace unknown today.

@@ashalaska3685 Well, if we can put you in a time machine and send you back to the French Revolution, let's see if Robespierre will spare your life with the "National Razor." 🤣 No doubt he was a man of compassion and mercy (yeah, that was sarcasm in case you missed it). They guy was a tyrant, plain and simple.
@@williamcattr267 tbh I'd be more worried about fouche and the thermidorians (guys who actually managed to get people killed without trial, something robespierre never did nor attempted to do). think your money's on the wrong guy my dude.
he wasn’t a tyrant. He was only one of the twelve who ruled and when he joined the committee that ruled the country the Terror was already running set up by Danton. He wanted to end it but was over ruled. The minute he was dead he was blamed for every bad thing ever done and the black reputation has stuck. He was incredibly popular with the people and the population was shocked by his fall, a fall brought about by his enemies, jealous of this popularity. If you look at the surviving documentation he sent back more warrants than he sent on to the tribunal. The crowd was not jubilant watching his execution. This commentary is mainly propaganda.

Maybe a tyrant, but he will be for sure pardoned by the masonic pressure groups protecting him
how could he lose his head? it should have been right there in the basket, where it fell?
That don't look like him at all..and all portraits of him look different..So will the real Robespierre please stand up????
Even the Persians attacked?
My gaydar alerts any time Ropespierre appears.
3:58 do you mean Prussians?
Interesting!
He was certainly worse than Louis XVI, and much more deserving of his fate.
worse than a literal tyrant, eh? remind me, who tried to get his own country invaded after losing the tiniest bit of his power?
@ashalaska3685 No need to remind you. On the contrary, Robespierre got to "drink" his own poison and much deservedly so.
@@williamcattr267 no he didn't lmao
@@ashalaska3685 Well, if we can put you in a time machine and send you back to the French Revolution, let's see if Robespierre will spare your life with the "National Razor." 🤣 No doubt he was a man of compassion and mercy (yeah, that was sarcasm in case you missed it).
They guy was a tyrant, plain and simple.
@@williamcattr267 tbh I'd be more worried about fouche and the thermidorians (guys who actually managed to get people killed without trial, something robespierre never did nor attempted to do). think your money's on the wrong guy my dude.
France became absolutely barbaric
He's my idol and my spiritual leader, I base every single one of my beliefs off of his Cult Of Supreme Being form of Deism :)
Persians folks, Persian cats.
I’d love to have a video about Julie d’Auvigny!
The Persians? Seriously?
Voice: de-ess needed.
The beginning sounds like what Uncle Joe wants.
How’d that all work out for old Robes? Lizards gonna liz. Good riddance.
Take heed Keir Starmer.
“Let them eat cake!” 🍰
she NEVER said that. Never!
@@nunocbnunocb5875 Thank you. So many misquotes throughout history from historically known figures.
Why are you quoting Rousseau's book?
She never said that.
@@nunocbnunocb5875 Not just this but many other things told about her are wrong.
he wasn’t a tyrant. He was only one of the twelve who ruled and when he joined the committee that ruled the country the Terror was already running set up by Danton. He wanted to end it but was over ruled. The minute he was dead he was blamed for every bad thing ever done and the black reputation has stuck. He was incredibly popular with the people and the population was shocked by his fall, a fall brought about by his enemies, jealous of this popularity. If you look at the surviving documentation he sent back more warrants than he sent on to the tribunal. The crowd was not jubilant watching his execution. This commentary is mainly propaganda.
Another terrible 6th grade reading of a wiki page
