girondins was eliminated by the Jacobins
The Girondins and Jacobins are one and the same; the Girondins are members of the Jacobin club. However the difference is the leading influential figures within the Jacobin club which caused a divide in ideology and resulting in two split groups; the Girondins and Montagnards.The Girondins are most famously associated with Brissot, hence their alternative name Brissotins.Whilst, the Montagnards were under the main influence of Robespierre. Heavily simplifying the difference between the Girondins and Montagnards; the Girondins were more conservative in ideas while the Montagnards were more radical, favouring total republicanism.
The Girondins didn't want or have to prove the royal family guilty. Everybody accepted the guilt of the king and queen as a fact after their flight to Varennes, in which they tried to flee France into Austria so that they could use foreign assistance to attack the revolutionary government. In fact, the Girondins were the people who were against King Louis XVI's execution. The Girondins wanted the king to be exiled. It was the Jacobins who got Louis executed.
The reign of terror was incited by a conflict between rival political factions, the Girondins and the Jacobins. The Jacobins gained control of the committee of public safety, and at this point Maximilien Robespierre made his entrance quickly becoming the most influential member of the Committee as it moved to take radical measures against the Revolution's domestic and foreign enemies.
