Best Answer

Louis XVI was overthrown by the people of the France who wanted change in the French Revolution. These people were known as the National assembly of France, (formerly the Third Estate) and later became a small group called the Conventions. They were enlightened thinkers who wanted equal rights, a constitution, and a better life where only the rich and noble wouldn't be the only ones to have a good life.

One of the leaders of the conventions who issued the death of the King was known as Maximilian Robespierre, a lawyer and enlightened thinker who influenced thousands of people in the revolution until he went overboard. After M.R said the King must die in order for the revolution to be successful, the king faced the bloody death of the Guillotine.
