Louis XVI triggered the feelings of the French Revolution. The country's people where already not happy with the economic or social systems in France. When Louis XVI came into power he began wasting a lot of the country's money on unnecessary things for him self and the nobles. he created the palace of Versailles which is an extremely expensive palace that was built when he had a palace already located in France. He used this palace to hold banquets and other expensive parties. This was just one example of how he used the country's money for luxury. The French were not happy with this and this brought back many old memories of some of the corruption going on in France. The French people thought and said that they needed a revolution for their country. The where going to either bring down the king if he did not cooperate or they where willing to fight to have a better country. In summary king Louis XVI's actions sparked the French Revolution. i like trains.
King Louis XVI contributed by being a terrible monarch. He spent all his money on himself and Marie Antoinette while the rest of the country suffered from a terrible famine. This led to the eventual uprising of the French people.
He gave all that he could give in the twinkling of an eye. He was sent to the guillotine on 21 January 1793. The French Revolution was guilty of Regicide.
He was the King of France, the absolute monarch.
Yes, he was.
There really is no one thing that started the French Revolution, but the biggest reason was because King Louis XVI failed to properly manage his nation's finances. Wars and depression caused the large population of Paris and France to unseat their leaders and claim the country for themselves in the name of liberty.

Louis XVI and Marie-Antionette had two daughters and two sons. Two of these died before the Revolution. The two royal children alive during the Revolution were Louis the Dauphin, heir to the Throne, and Marie-Therese. Marie-Therese and Louis were separated from their parents when they were imprisoned (both their parents were put on trial and executed). The Dauphin died in prison; it is not clear whether it was a deliberate murder or whether he simply died of illness in the unsanitary conditions of the prison. He was never put on trial. Louis was later known as "Louis XVII" despite the fact that he was never crowned as King. A number of people attempted to impersonate him in later life and claim the French throne. Marie-Therese survived the Revolution and died in 1851.

They knew he was kept a prisoner in the Tuillerie prison. At that time, the revolution and the reign of terror was at its height, and the French hated the monarchs and their family. Also, they knew that when Louis XVII would grow up, he might revenge his parents death and actually claim the throne (like the two brothers of Louis XVI did after Napoleon). Therefore, they really couldn't care less what happened to the child.
No, this isn't enough to claim French citizenship. Your father or mother have to be French to claim French nationality in that respect.
Based on this information, he argues that the French Revolution produced far more negative outcomes than positive ones.
The question is so badly mangled that it's not answerable.There is not, and has never been, a "Leopold 11 of Australia".There was a Holy Roman Emporer styled Leopold II who was born in Austria and who was the brother of Marie Antoinette.Marie did ask her brother for help during the French Revolution. I don't know if there's any truth to the claim that she "gave military secrets to him" ... Leopold offered to help Marie and her husband Louis XVI if she could escape from Paris, but far from "plotting against the French Revolution", Leopold was actually fairly pleased by the prospect of a weaker France.
