Hey everyone! Today we learned why the French Revolution turned more violent than the American Revolution. We looked at the Reign of Terror and how Robespierre used fear to keep order and prevent chaos in France from 1793-1794. We also discussed the usage of the guillotine for public executions and why it was used during the time period.
As we know, public executions still happen in many countries today. Your homework is to research a country that still uses public execution. Why do they use it? What do they do? Answer these questions within one or two paragraphs.
Also be safe while researching these. ONLY USE CREDIBLE WEBSITES OR NEWS SITES WHILE DOING THIS RESEARCH. I do not want you to research on youtube or any sites that may be inappropriate. Stick to any websites that have a .edu or .org in it. For news stories, stick to CNN, New York Times, Life, etc.
