Why did they killed Marie Antoinette died?

Answer 1

IMPROVED ANSWER:

Marie Antoinette, was a very stubborn woman, who did not want to give up the throne as Queen of France. Instead of trying to rally the nation in support of a constitutional monarchy like that on England, Marie plotted to get military aid from other rulers of Europe, especially from her brother, Leopold II, of Austria. She refused to make any concessions at all to the revolutionists.

After an unsuccessful escape of the Royal Family of France, King Louis XVI, promised to accept a new constitution that limited his powers.

However, Marie now worked to get aid from abroad, and, when war with Austria and Prussia came in 1792, she passed military secrets on to the enemy. The people of France suspected such treason.

On August 10, 1792, they threw their rulers in prison. The king was suspended from office, and the monarchy was ended. Louis XVI died on the guillotine on January 21, 1793. Marie Antoinette was placed on trial on a charge of treason. She was executed on the guillotine on October 16, 1793.

Answer 2

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.
