I have to write a paper on the Thermidorian Reaction, and I have to relate it to modern times, and I can't think of any examples of modern history that can relate to the end of the Reign of Terror. Can you please help?

Brief overview of the Thermidorian Reaction:
Robespierre is killed leading to the end of the Reign of Terror, moderates freed a number of Jacobins prisoners, neutralized power of Comittee of Public Safety, undid accomplishments Robespierre had earned for the poor, National Convention rid of price controls, printed more money, prices hightened, peasants tried to revolt but were stopped by the government.
