As the head of state of France, Maximilian Robespierre reigned between 1792-1794, one of the shortest in French history. He helped in forming the Committee for Public Safety and became the chief member, a short while after King Louis XVI and Queen Marie were executed.

Robespierre’s desire for revolution was not only confined to his wish for political change but he also opposed the pope and the Catholic Church, and was concerned with virtue, to the extent that he saw those opposing his ideals as unvirtuous, soon this became known as Robespierre trying to get “The Cult of the Supreme Being” to be France’s national religion.
