Henri Lefèvre D'Ormesson
Henri Lefèvre d'Ormesson (8 May 1751, Paris, France – 12 April 1808, Paris, France) was a French politician. In 1783, he very briefly served as Finance Minister at a critical moment when France was on the verge of acknowledging its bankruptcy.Carlyle, Thomas. The French Revolution A History', Revised Edition, 1 (New York: The Colonial Press), p. 57. He was only thirty-one years old at the time. When he brought his concerns to the king he was reproached: Louis said to d'Ormesson, "I am still younger, and my situation is more difficult than that which I intrust to you." This gave the new finance minister a boost in confidence, but he was unable to rise to the enormous challenge of stabilizing the nation's financial turmoil, and, after holding office for only seven months, he resigned in late 1783. A man of inconsiderable fortune, he nevertheless donated to the poor of St.-Cyr. He served as Mayor of Paris The Mayor of Paris (french: Maire de Paris) is the chief executive of ...

Girondist
The Girondins ( , ), or Girondists, were members of a loosely knit political faction during the French Revolution. From 1791 to 1793, the Girondins were active in the Legislative Assembly and the National Convention. Together with the Montagnards, they initially were part of the Jacobin movement. They campaigned for the end of the monarchy, but then resisted the spiraling momentum of the Revolution, which caused a conflict with the more radical Montagnards. They dominated the movement until their fall in the insurrection of 31 May – 2 June 1793, which resulted in the domination of the Montagnards and the purge and eventual mass execution of the Girondins. This event is considered to mark the beginning of the Reign of Terror. The Girondins were a group of loosely affiliated individuals rather than an organized political party and the name was at first informally applied because the most prominent exponents of their point of view were deputies to the Legislative Assembly from the ...
