So when I was curious one day, I did a lot of research. The internet provides little to answer the question though. I had to dig around at my alma mater back when. Also found out that my last name means 'God fearing', but I'm not religious. Also funny.
And no arguement that the guillotine didn't ease up on the messiness. I just find the people's intents very weird given the outcome. Sadly, it didn't provide much help to Louis XVI.
