The Nation was facing bankruptcy.
There was a shortage of grain and bread.
The tax burden was to high and was not shared by everyone.
The people had no say in government and the King was inept and ineffective.
The Queen had been born an Austrian and was wrongfully charged with being a spendthrift.
It was time for some radical changes.
Marie Antoinette was born an Archduchess of Austria. She had a fairly simple childhood, and little education, as was the norm for girls at that time. However, she played many musical instruments.
In short, the French revolution was to overthrow the monarchs, because the bourgeoisie had enough of the luxurious and privileged lives of the royals and nobility. The revolutionists wanted everybody to be equal. So they fought to overthrow their royals and to rid themselves of the "tyrants" (their monarchs, who were in fact far from tyrants). Marie Antoinette was the last Queen ever in France. Since then France has had an emperor (Napoleon Bonaparte), some Kings in name (so not really Kings at all) and eventually Presidents. Marie Antoinette was an Austrian archduchess and since the French had been at war with Austria for ages, her mother and King Louis XV designed this marriage to be a political statement: peace. She was used as a political pion. The French already hated her before she set foot in their country, just because she was Austrian. She was literally pamphletted to death by vicious rumours. (a small example: the sentence "let them eat cake" was never uttered by her at all!) the example at that time was the Affair of the Necklace, something which she had absolutely nothing to do with. Marie Antoinette was not part of any suppression of the French people. She should have been exiled to her home country of Austria.
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.
yes
People of Germany were not happy with the Weimar Republic (German Reich) which was a product of the German Revolution in November 1918.
As a Queen Marie Antoinette was not well loved, She had a birth defect that could never be corrected or accepted by her loyal subjects. (She had been born an Austrian). She had a happy life despite whisper campaigns that she was an Austrian Spy and worse yet a spendthrift until the revolution. They then killed her husband and then they killed her. The End of her less than perfect but Happy Story.
