Accomplishments: Some of his accomplishments are that he defended and solidified Revolutionary ideas. He strengthened the government and got rid of slavery as well.
Failures: Although he had some successes, he killed more that 17,000 people during the process. He was also hated greatly because he misused the guillotine, which led him to get executed.
How he reflected the Revolutionary values: Robespierre enforced Revolutionary thought by giving fear to the people and threatening to execute them if they were against it. He did this to have equality throughout France and was a radical thinker.

However, the club ended up separating into two groups who were strongly against each other.
Time of Involvements in the Revolution: 1792-1794
Accomplishments: The Jacobins were able to retrieve a lot of political power as they grew into a nationwide republican movement. They established the Committee of Public Safety, executed King Louis XVI, and captured the Paris Commune.
Failures: The Jacobins failed to set up a workable constitutional monarchy and were part of the minority for some time. Because they were in favor of a republic rather than a monarchy, they executed King Louis XVI. Then Robespierre who was their leader inflicted the Reign of Terror that killed thousands of people and started to regret it.
How they reflected the Revolutionary values: The Jacobins Club group members were made up of radical thinkers and Robespierre, an example of a radical thinker, was their leader for a while. They were against monarchy and wanted the government to change and become republic.
Role: The Jacobins played a role of encouraging change in the governmental system for the better and started the Reign of Terror by executing King Louis XVI.]]> 2017-11-17 04:23:12 UTC https://padlet.com/carolyntruong/cfyer2vlx5rj/wish/207976893 irenejiwon https://padlet.com/carolyntruong/cfyer2vlx5rj/wish/207980156 The Committee of Public Safety was formed by the National Convention.
