Marie Antoinette was queen of France (husband Louis XVI) were rulers during the French Revolution in the 1700s. Because of the revolution, both were killed by revolting peasants. They were killed by the guillotine, a more "humane" way of killing criminals that involves quickly dropping a blade to decapitate them.
There are a few other things important to note during this time:
- Marie Antoinette and her husband were no older than sixteen during the time, and they were RULING a whole COUNTRY!
- Marie Antoinette did NOT say the well-known "Let them eat cake," to the peasants. That is a rumor and is NOT true. Thisi s merely a metaphor designed to show how out of touch the royalty were with the poor.
