like always, it considerately exagerates Robespierre's personnel power and responsabilities : Robespierre was just one member among twelve, of the Committee of Public Safety, in theory the government of revolutionnary France, but who had his power limited by the Committee of General Security, that was the police department. Both of the committees had to answer for their actions to the National Convention (the parliament) every week, and each member had to get confirmed by the National Convention each month to keep his position. Robespierre was not a dictator, as he had too little personnal power : he had no personnal armed troops, no political party at his orders, and no bureaucracy either : all of his decisions had to be approved by the 11 other members of the Committee, so none of the decisions he made, or the death sentences he signed, were personnal delusions
Moral of the story: A better tomorrow is never possible through persecution and blind aggression.

Not really, it was more likely the thermidoriens who accused Robespierre of killing jacobin and radical members such as Danton which eventually led to the fall of Robespierre… and despite what the propaganda tells us, the thermidoriens weren’t moderated but during the 9th thermidor, they started being moderate… but even after the death of Robespierre, the gu*llotine was more used

not really cuz robespierre was the one who created the motto of LIBERTÉ ÉGALITÉ FRATERNITÉ and when the mobs rebelled against the revolutionary governement, robespierre supported the mob and the people meanwhile he despised the senators and deputies who were INSIDE of the republican governement... Literally he purged a lot of them in order to avoid a potential dictator to take over the republic... any potential enemy of freedom was then purged... sympathizing with a monarchist was enough proof to be send to the gu*llotine Robespierre even said that the side who talks about freedom is his side, no matter if that side is right or not

why is guillotine censored. also "not agreeing with robespierre" was not a guillotinable offense or else fouche and tallien would have died much sooner, making everyone's lives much more toloerable.
Robespierre tried to shoot himself when he was captured, but ended up breaking his jaw. Allegedly, someone ripped off the bandage holding his jaw in place right before the blade fell, so he died screaming.
You do realize that the Hotel de Ville was not a hotel... as in Hilton, Marriott, etc. It is the City Hall of Paris. The graphic of the hotel was a bit off but amusing.
