Reign of Terror. The Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition. 2001-05 (0 words) |
 | The members of the National Convention, fearing that the new purge would be turned against them, joined forces with Robespierres enemies on the committees and overthrew Robespierre on 9 Thermidor (July 27, 1794). |
 | The Reign of Terror was followed by the Thermidorian reaction under a reconstituted Committee of Public Safety (1794) and by the White Terror, in which many former terrorists were executed. |
 | While the Reign of Terror answered the need for a strong executive and saved France from anarchy and military defeat, its effect upon public opinion, especially foreign opinion, was extremely harmful to the Revolutionary cause. |
| Reign of Fire - Rotten Tomatoes (0 words) |
 | Reign of Fire may be little more than another platter of reheated Aliens, but it's still pretty tasty. |
 | Definitely in the guilty pleasure B- movie category, Reign of Fire is so incredibly inane that it is laughingly enjoyable. |
 | Reign of Fire never comes close to recovering from its demented premise, but it does sustain an enjoyable level of ridiculousness. |
