The French Revolution's Committee of Public Safety, formed on April 6, 1793, played a pivotal role in guiding the nation through crisis and combating internal and external threats. It oversaw the Revolutionary Tribunal, which became infamous for its harsh judgments during the Reign of Terror. Key figures like Robespierre, Danton, and Marat were involved. The period saw the execution of Marie-Antoinette, the rise of the Montagnards, and the fall of the Girondins, culminating in the Thermidorian Reaction that ended the Terror.
