Which is a characteristic of the jacobins?
a. they were called right-wing
b. they wanted very few changes
c. they wanted monarchy
d. they were extremely radical

Explanation:

The Jacobin Club was commonly called by that name because in their early days the held their meetings at a former Dominican convent in Paris.  (In France, the Dominican monastic order came to be called Jacobins.)   Orignially, their official name was the Society of the Friends of the Constitution, which indicated their original emphasis on a constitutional republic replacing an absolute monarchy.

The Jacobins came to be more and more radical over time.  The more moderate members left the group when the main Jacobin faction pushed for the execution of the king in 1791.   In 1792 the group changed its official name to  the Society of the Jacobins, Friends of Liberty and Equality.  That name shows their emphasis on insisting on a form of society in which all persons had the same freedoms and equal status.  The group turned against not only the aristocracy but also the wealthiest members of the bourgeoisie.  Maximilien Robespierre, who led the Reign of Terror, came from the Jacobin faction

because it took place after the war of 1812 had come to an end.
