King Louis XVI was weak and Queen Marie Antoinette spent money like it was nothing. Neither was a good ruler when the people were starving. They were like Tsar Nicholas when the Revolution occurred in Russia in 1917. They were proof that appointing rulers based on bloodline, hereditary, did not work.
