As the deputies proceed with the King's trial, a radical proposal upends the proceedings. Leading Girondins suggested "the appeal to the people", a national referendum to determine the King's fate. Rejected by the Mountain, both factions denounce the other as they seek to win the support of the Plain. This episode explores the appeal to the people, the positions of each faction on direct democracy, and the possible motivations for the Girondins' surprising actions.

Exclusive Bonus Content (Episode Extras)

1.47.1 Additional Thoughts on Girondin Motivations - This unscripted analysis examines how the possibility of war in the Atlantic may have encouraged some Girondins to seek clemency for the King. It also examines an additional theory from Historian Jean Jaurès as to why the Girondins had no choice but to propose the appeal to the people and attempt to avoid the King's execution.
