This document provides an overview of key events and figures during the radical phase of the French Revolution from 1791-1799. It discusses the shift towards more radical policies, the declaration of the French Republic in 1792, and the rise of the Jacobins and their establishment of the Reign of Terror led by Robespierre. Military defeats led the revolutionary government to establish controls over the economy and purge opponents, executing around 40,000 suspected counter-revolutionaries. Growing fears of Robespierre's power led to his execution in 1794, ending the Terror. The Directory then ruled France until 1799.
