Austria was the country Marie Antoinette came from, the last French Queen at the time of the revolution. It is also the country that France had been in and out of war with for several years. France and Austria weren't good friends so to say. As a matter of fact, to fix this tense relationship between the 2 countries, the empress of Austria, Maria Theresia, cooked up the idea of sending one of her daughters to France to marry the dauphin (crownprince). This daughter was Marie Antoinette. Unfortunately, the relationship between the two countries never bettered and they started a new war in 1791.
