Format: Nader Shah, also known as Thomas Qoli Khan, was an early 18th-century Persian shah known for being one of the most powerful Iranian rulers in the history of the Middle East. And while he was powerful, his power corrupted him, and he became exceedingly cruel to his subjects. So much so that it led to his assassination by a group of a dozen or more conspirators.

From Wiki: Pierre-Ulric Dubuisson (23 January 1746 in Laval, Mayenne – 24 March 1794) was an 18th-century French actor, playwright and theatre director. Sympathetic to the Hébertists he was denounced by Robespierre as having intended to sow discord among the Jacobins and was tried by the Revolutionary Court. He was sentenced to death and guillotined with other Hébertists on 24 March 1794 at the age of 48 years.
