In the aftermath of the fall of the monarchy, the ‘First Terror’ is unleashed. The new Paris Commune seeks to protect the revolution by relentlessly pursuing its enemies. Most famously, a new revolutionary tribunal is established, although its results produce unintended consequences. As Paris is consumed by conspiracies, the institutional and factional rivalries of the revolution escalate from feuds to all-out war.
