Two friends are hanging out in Paris. They are discussing France's history. |
|
| So, I was thinking about the French Revolution. They were quite violent the back then. | |
|
| Yeah, like during the Reign Of Terror. | |
|
|
|
|
They are thinking about the Reign Of Terror, which was when the Public Safety Committee killed thousands of people by the guillotine. |
|
| Yeah, when all those people were killed just because they opposed the new government. What a shame. | |
|
| Yes, I'm sure they could have solved that problem in a much easier manner than just killing everyone. | |
|
|
|
|
This event was obviously not democratic, because this was basically one person saying, "Kill them all!" If it had been democratic, then they would've lived, most likely. |
|
| They should've taken a vote, or called together the National Assembly to see what should be done. | |
|
| Yes, that would've been much more democratic. | |
