The Reign of Terror, which started in 1793, was marked by mass executions of those deemed enemies of the revolution, with thousands, including Queen Marie Antoinette and many political opponents, being guillotined. This brutal campaign was directly overseen by the Committee of Public Safety, headed by Robespierre, who used it to consolidate power and suppress counter-revolutionaries.
