What was the Reign of Terror, and how did it show that revolutions can lead to radical violence in the name of political ideals?

Answers

Answer 1

Reign of Terror, also called the Terror, French La Terreur, period of the French Revolution from September 5, 1793, to July 27, 1794 (9 Thermidor, year II). With civil war spreading from the Vendée and hostile armies surrounding France on all sides, the Revolutionary government decided to make “Terror” the order of the day (September 5 decree) and to take harsh measures against those suspected of being enemies of the Revolution (nobles, priests, and hoarders). In Paris a wave of executions followed. In the provinces, representatives on mission and surveillance committees instituted local terrors. The Terror had an economic side embodied in the Maximum, a price-control measure demanded by the lower classes of Paris, and a religious side that was embodied in the program of de-Christianization pursued by the followers of Jacques Hébert.

During the Terror, the Committee of Public Safety (of which Maximilien de Robespierre was the most prominent member) exercised virtual dictatorial control over the French government. In the spring of 1794, it eliminated its enemies to the left (the Hébertists) and to the right (the Indulgents, or followers of Georges Danton). Still uncertain of its position, the committee obtained the Law of 22 Prairial, year II (June 10, 1794), which suspended a suspect’s right to public trial and to legal assistance and left the jury a choice only of acquittal or death. The “Great Terror” that followed, in which about 1,400 persons were executed, contributed to the fall of Robespierre on July 27 (9 Thermidor).

el despacho que Eugenio Alliata tiene en Jerusalén es el típico del arqueólogo que prefiere estar manchándose de tierra a pie de excavación que estar entre cuatro paredes poniendo orden. En un rincón cría polvo un equipo informático estropeado. Los informes de excavación comparten las abarrotadas estanterías con cintas métricas y otros implementos del oficio.

Es como el despacho de cualquier arqueólogo que he conocido en Oriente Próximo, con la diferencia de que Alliata viste hábito marrón de fraile franciscano y tiene su gabinete en el monasterio de la Flagelación, que según la tradición eclesiástica se alza en el lugar exacto en que Jesucristo, ya condenado a muerte, fue azotado por los soldados romanos y coronado de espinas.

«Tradición» es una palabra que se repite muy a menudo en este rincón del mundo, donde ma­sas de turistas y de peregrinos atestan decenas de lugares que, según la tradición, constituyen los escenarios de la vida de Cristo, desde su cuna en Belén hasta su sepultura en Jerusalén.

Para una arqueóloga reconvertida en periodista como yo, sabedora de que culturas enteras brillaron y sucumbieron sin dejar tras de sí más que unos pocos vestigios sobre la Tierra, buscar en un paisaje milenario evidencias de una sola persona se antoja la crónica de un fracaso anunciado, como intentar dar caza a un fantasma. Y si ese fantasma es nada menos que Jesucristo, en quien más de 2.000 millones de habitantes del planeta ven al mismísimo Hijo de Dios, en fin, ante tamaña tarea conviene buscar guía divina.

ARQUEOLOGÍA CRISTIANA

Y por ese motivo siempre que viajo a Jerusalén recalo una y otra vez en el monasterio de la Flagelación, donde el padre Alliata nunca deja de recibirme –a mí y a mis preguntas– con una paciencia infinita. En calidad de catedrático de arqueología cristiana y director del museo del Studium Biblicum Franciscanum, forma parte de la misión franciscana que lleva 700 años cuidando y protegiendo los lugares sagrados de Tierra Santa (y, desde el siglo XIX, excavándolos de acuerdo con los principios científicos).

Como hombre de fe, el padre Alliata parece reconocer sin incomodidad hasta dónde puede llegar la arqueología, y hasta dónde no, para revelar la figura fundamental del cristianismo. «Descubrir pruebas arqueológicas de [un individuo concreto que vivió] hace 2.000 años sería algo raro y excepcional –reconoce–. Pero tampoco puede negarse que Jesús dejó una huella histórica».

Ranchers used cattle trails to transport their animals from grazing areas to markets. The most renowned Great Plains trails ran from Texas to Kansas cow towns or railheads.

During the late nineteenth century, the Great Western Cattle Trail was used to transport livestock and horses to markets in the eastern and northern states.

The Western Trail, Fort Griffin Trail, Dodge City Trail, Northern Trail, and Texas Road are all names for it. When the Chisholm path was closed, it was replaced.

Therefore, the best explanation of the development of cattle trails from 1840-1883 is demand for beef in the North increased profits.

A Growing Nation

After the American Revolution, the newly formed United States realized that it lacked room to grow. The states created in the Declaration of Independence in 1776 were limited in size. As the population increased, more people were competing for the same amount of land. Consequently, land became more expensive, and overcrowding became an issue. The thirteen states were bordered by the Atlantic Ocean and the territories of other nations. If the United States was going to have a future, it needed to increase its territory.

President Thomas Jefferson believed that for Americans to be virtuous and free, they needed to farm land. He wanted to expand westward to create more farmland. Jefferson also wanted to obtain the Port of New Orleans at the mouth of the Mississippi River so farmers could easily transport their goods. He facilitated the purchase of New Orleans and the rest of the French territory from France in 1803 for $15 million. This new land was called the Louisiana Territory and stretched partway across the continent. It was the first step in expanding the United States.

USA is shown and different areas are highlighted. The east coast region is highlighted first and shows 1776, the middle east is highlighted next and shows 1803, the mid north and all of the east is highlighted third and 1821 is highlighted. Then all of the middle and east areas are highlighted and 1845 is shown. Next the north west area is highlighted and 1846 is shown. Then the south west area is highlighted and 1848 is shown. Last, the south part of Arizona is highlighted and shows 1853.

The purchase of the Louisiana Territory led to a pattern of westward expansion through payment, negotiations, and conflict. The United States purchased Florida from Spain with the Florida Purchase Treaty of 1821. Instead of paying Spain a set amount, the United States would pay the $5 million Americans claimed were owed to them by Spain. After Texas declared independence from Mexico, it was annexed by the United States and became an official state in 1845. Another land controversy occurred between Great Britain and the United States, as both countries claimed the Oregon region. The dispute was settled in the 1846 Oregon Treaty, which separated the countries by the line of the 49th parallel. Mexico refused to let the United States buy California and New Mexico, so the two countries eventually went to war. Because the Americans won the war, the United States was able to buy lands in the Southwest in 1848. The United States paid Mexico $10 million for an area of land in the Southwest in the 1853 Gadsden Purchase, stretching its borders from sea to sea.
