      Marie Antoinette died in a similar fashion as Elena Ceausescu. She also was wrongly accused of many things, because some powerful entities wanted her removal from power.
      Please do a video about Elena Ceausescu.

    Marie was a good woman. And the French Revolution was a horrific blood bath. Nothing about “freedom”, unlike the American revolution.

      Her “trial” was a comedy show. She was even accused of having sex with her 8 yrs old son, to which she replied, “I appeal to all mothers”….
      She didn’t stood a chance. Her fate was sealed. She was sacrificed.

      It was horrible. The song the head was singing is called "Ça ira" and it was popular during the french revolution. The lyrics incited people to murder aristocrats.
      Showing Marie-Antoinette with her head in her hands was particularly horrible considering that in 2020, Samuel Paty a French teacher suffered the same fate in the hands of a terrorist. I hope his family, friends and students did not see that part of the ceremony.

    I have read in some historical documentations that Marie was suffering an intense and severe urinary tract infection that caused her immense pain, inconvenience and embarrassment trying to cover up the exudate. I don't know if this is true, but if it is, she probably more or less "welcomed" the end of this embarrassment and pain. In any case, there was nothing that could be done to cure this condition at the time of her execution. Perhaps packs and pessaries. But probably nothing would help. It is unlikely any medical assistance was requested or offered. This was an ancient prison, after all.
    This is all the more reason to have compassion for this courageous woman. We all wonder HOW we could face the infernal machine with the courage she did.

      Monarchs and Royals are pathetic. They are a lineage of tyrants who worked their way into wealth and power, then, in order to instill fear into an uneducated and superstitious, god-fearing populace, declared that they were ordained by god. They did this because the population was so afraid of god’s wrath. Psychological strategy that was carried forward over generations to the point of becoming a part of national identity. It’s both amusing and sad. They have a fabricated legitimacy and it’s amazing that so many still exist.

    When Madame du Barry, the mistress of Louis XV, was led out of the prison on the way to execution, she was so afraid that she clung to the grill of a window in the prison yard. When she arrived at the scaffold and witnessed the guillotine, she screamed in fear and panic and had to be led up the scaffold against her will. Studing the French Revolution on my own in my retirement was one of the most interesting things I've ever done. It's a complex history but fascinating to study till the end of the Napoleonic Wars.

      She didn't rule the country. Queens of France are prohibited from reigning unless she is Regent. Ruled by Louis 16, Marie-Antoinette was very far from politics:
      A letter addressed on September 22, 1784 to her brother Joseph shows the limits of the Queen's political influence: “I am not blind to my credit; I know that, especially when it comes to politics, I don't have much influence over the king's mind. Would it be prudent for me to have scenes with his minister on subjects on which it is almost certain that the king would not support me? Without ostentation or lies, I let the public believe that I have more credit than I really have, because, if they didn't believe me, I would have even less. »

You were sent to the gallies where you never made it back for poaching a few rabbits to feed your family. Hanged for stealing a loaf of bread. Taxed to death. You did not exist as a commoner,only the church kept records of birth marriage and death. -she and Louis xvi could have accepted the constitutional monarchy but instead they tried to leave the country in 1792 to join the Austrians (her native country) and Prussian coalition to attack France to restore them as absolute monarchs.
    No tears were shed for her.

She had to do so in the courtyard of the prison. What an indignity for the Queen of France! I thought reference would be made to this incident in the video.
