An intersection of a very peculiar, prominent 18th century gentlemen. These are scathing.
Robespierre is often contemplated as a "tyrant", someone who was the engender to all the revolutions failings, an autocrat, dictator, caused scourge to the people of France, and a crammed betrayer of the revolution. But, was he really that bad? I've seen so many other opinions about this dude and now it's gotten my interest in learning more; I just need a little more background on this guy.
(I also don't trust the History Channel anymore as they seem more corrupt than how they foresee Robespierre.)
