Why were the king and queen of france beheaded?

Under the French Revolution, defiance grew gradually about the King Louis XVI and the Queen Marie-Antoinette. The French populace was worried that foreign monarchies could attack France (as it set a very bad example for other peoples). After the tentative escape of the royal family, many people thought that the king had betrayed them. Die-hard revolutionaries took advantage of the huge resentment of the French, to win the decision to execute the king as traitor to the nation. For them, the decision had the advantage to prevent a change of mind of the populace, and to embark definitively France into Revolution.707 representatives of the convention out of 718 voted that the king was guilty of treason, but only a short majority (including the king's own cousin, Louis-Philippe d'Orléans) voted for death. The rest of the votes were split between a postponed death penalty or other punishments.
