The resulting Convention was founded with the dual purpose of abolishing the monarchy and drafting a new constitution . The Convention's first act, on 10 August 1792, was to establish the French First Republic and officially strip the king of all political powers . Citizen Louis Capet, by then a private citizen bearing his family name of Capet, was subsequently put on trial for crimes of high treason starting in December 1792 . On 16 January 1793 he was convicted, and on 21 January, he was executed by guillotine . </P> <P> Throughout the winter of 1792 and spring of 1793, Paris was plagued by food riots and mass hunger . The new Convention did little to remedy the problem until late spring of 1793, occupied instead with matters of war . Finally, on 6 April 1793, the Convention created the Committee of Public Safety, and was given a monumental task: "To deal with the radical movements of the Enragés, food shortages and riots, the revolt in the Vendée and in Brittany, recent defeats of its armies, and the desertion of its commanding general ." Most notably, the Committee of Public Safety instated a policy of terror, and the guillotine began to fall on perceived enemies of the republic at an ever - increasing rate, beginning the period known today as the Reign of Terror . </P>
