France actually had a constitutional monarchy for a while, but then Robespierre and his terror showed up. Robespierre and his followers insisted that the revolution could only live if the king was dead. So Louie and alot later his wife were sentenced to death.
It doesn't help that they're just eating salami meat right after. It looks wrong because it makes it look like they got it from...somewhere or someone, even if it was never stated.
What happened to their children was much crueler. I watched a small informational video about it. Their daughter was imprisoned, the younger son died to “illness” and the heir was routinely tortured all within earshot of his sister until he circumed to his injuries after being forced to lie about his mother during her trial. He was only a small child. The daughter and her husbands were temporarily crowned king and queen but quickly abdicated the throne to her cousin.
The older son and first dauphin DID die of tuberculosis before the start of the revolution. It was the younger son, (the second dauphin) who was maltreated to death during the revolution.

So much was left out here... like the fact that Marie Antoinette actually tried to make things better for her subjects by giving them freshly baked bread from the palace kitchens...
Reminder that King Louis XVI made reforms to help the commonfolk and would have gone further if he had a backbone to oppose the interests of the aristocracy. He was a cool guy.
@@RABIET100 Ignorant response yours. He did attempt to reform even before, if not for the people for the sake of having a functional government that could support a modern state.
And that's wrong, totally wrong. It was the parisian bourgeoisie who start the Revolution. No one care at the start in the lands. The peasants were so uneducated they can't knew what's the purpose of the king and can't get why the Revolution is going on. The idea of the Revolution came from the upper class of philosophs ("Le siècle des Lumières" was the XVIIIth and the France was the middle of earth back to this century) and the middle class of "bourgeois", educated and upset because of many things that didn't worked in France in this age: the monarchy was criticized for the expensiveness of their live, all the upper class of aristocrats were blamed to have no utility, the country was hurt by the "disette" (not as many foods for everybody to live correctly, a lot of deaths occured due to this and to the bad gestion of trashs in the capitol) and the bourgeoisie wanted to take the power over the aristocrats and the Church. They didn't want to kill the king or whatever, they wanted more rights, so they created a constitutionnal monarchy, that didn't last long cause the king abused his veto right and tried to flee to Austria in order to take back his absolute throne with the help of the Habsburg family. Before the beginning of the Revolution, Louis XVI wasn't a bad king, Louis XV was a bad king and Louis XIV dilapidates all the money of France about a century earlier, to make France the greatest country of Europe by her cultural shining (idk if you said that like this in english). He wasn't mean and he probably just want peace and joy for his country, but he was a bad politician, he wasn't made for this, he was more interested in science than politics. Then the Revolution derived quickly in an absolute slaughter and the consequences were dramatics on people and on culture (bell of Notre-Dame melted, castles saccaged, graves vandalized etc...) and the France became a bloody dictatorship where Robespierre and his friends were beheading a lot of peoples, too much (we call this period the "Terreur"). The man who saved the France, in the mind of everybody, is Napoléon Bonaparte, first consul of France, then first emperor of France. France became the most powerful country on the globe and started to unify the Europe and bring peace to everyone with new laws (very progressive in that time) but Napoléon failed the campaign of Russia and was defeated, after that point, France declined military and politically, but the art continues to be one of the finest of the world. A lot of troubles occured in the XIXth century, until 1870 and the end of the Second Empire and the beginning of the Third Republic, but that's another story... (sorry for my english, I have to practice it more, hope you understood :)

Remember Seeing on PBS a documentary on Marie Antonette that the American Revolution helped to inspire The French Revolution Also they were not beheaded together separately on different days YES PBS
But I remembered that some were hired as house servants in Europe (Exotic was thing back in a day), or getting freed after Robespierre banned it in Haiti. Ironically, One of Louis XVI reform was to convince the peasant to plant potato, which they were too stubborn to plant or develop a recipe for it.
And the Life wasn't better. - More peasants were killed than nobles during the Terror, - Marat being a walking version of Fox News, except his news based on rumors caused widespread paranoia to the point of frenzy even after his death, - Robespierre starting as idealistic leader before he become a tyrant until he was executed by his own purge. Oh yeah, french peasants even have problems trying to buy into planting potatoes or other new world crops (which might solve a hunger a little bit).
How unspfatheic to Louis and Marie they where also people in a complex situation and blaming these 2 grossly simplifies the events and this complexity are really some of the most valuable aspects reflecting the monder day and how we too are tangled up by the dosers of the powerful influencing the government rather then the majority. Yes I think a lot about the French revolution
