In 1791 Prussia and Austria issued a warning known as the Brunswick Manifesto stating they would invade France if any harm came to the Royal Family. This was due to the fact that King Louis XVI was married to Austrian princess Marie Antoinette, and her brother, Emperor Leopold II was concerned about their well being during the French Revolution. The Austro-Prussian Invasion of France did not occur until 1792.
