Why was Marie Antoinette against the french revolution?

Answer 1

At the time, the French people saw her not so much as a help to France, but as a menace. She did make significant, positive changes for France though, but they were recognized as such later, after she had died. She was the one that made Paris thé fashion capital in the world. She was the one that put Paris on the map of haute couture. Karl Lagerfeld, Christian Lacroix, Chanel, all the big designers still make clothing inspired by her. Also, she introduced the Croissant to France, making it the most famous sign of France, still today. She also ensured womens rights by showing (by her clothing and character) that a woman is someone to take account of and that there is more to a Queen than providing heirs to a throne.

They were captured at the border due to the fact that they were impersonating peasants but were riding in a very elaborate carriage. They were both returned to France where they were both beheaded.

The executioner reported that the King died like a man and that Marie Antoinette was every bit a Queen when she met her fate.
