I wonder what movie or novel you read from it because there is and has never been proof that Marie Antoinette had an affair with Fersen. On all account she was a very pious and sincere believer and there was no way she would have been unfaithful. Historian can say that she was ditzy and not very bright, with…

People make better leaders and are more adequate at advocating for civil rights and equality. Because we are able to empathize with feeling powerless, evaluated and discriminated against, since we live it from our birth to our graves.
Let me help you all white people. The n word is not for you and it's not up to you to decide when or how should the black community use it. You had it for 400 years and you used it to denigrate us and we have taken it back and it is ours now.
It gets lost all the time and people fall into that trap all the time.
Black on black argument is a fool's tool. In most case of the so called black on black crime if the killer is caught he gets sentenced and justice is served. The problem is that when a white person kills a black person, it is easier for them to escape punishment due because it is easier to pin the blame on the victim…
Yes and Versailles served as an enormous living commercial for the glory and power of the French royal dynasty. It basically blinded Europe and France for 100 years about the problems of France until it was too late do anything dooming the french monarchy that was the oldest in Europe at the time.
As my name can tell this be my ish! I will watch this even if it's unwatchable because I love Versailles. But no movie has ever gotten Versailles right, the closest to getting it was Sofia Coppola's Marie Antoinette and that was only because they had Antonia Fraser as advisor on set. Why do the French speak with an…
Where were you when Ramses became Australian in Exodus : God and Kings
No offense to y'all but the last statement should be changed to all white people. The Europeans, the English particularly, through colonialism did terrible things to people of color. #sorrynotsorry
if it wasn't for the revolution she would have gone down in history as one of the greatest queens in France and Europe. People often fail to gasp how much her husband in his later reign almost had a mental breakdown which forced Marie Antoinette to enter government matters and sit on the council. It was completely…
Mase tho, he deleted his ig. Please check his Wikipedia page before you go to bed for good laughter!
Not before I secured your independence from the British which cost me my throne. You are welcome lol!
If the mother of the emperor was able to power grab and Sissi played a part in creating the HUngaro an kingdom, there was power for royal women to wield at that time. And the Hapsburgs who had Maria Theresa as a great empress would know.
such a sad doomed couple. I guess that is why they will always be fascinating. I mean every deatails of their lives just foreshadowed their horrible end. Omen upin omen and yet they saw nothing.
It's the exact same situation. Those two couples were not meant for absolute rule. They also suffered for the sins of their predecessors.
They weren't miserable, they were just so uneducated when it came to sex that they were doing it wrong. It only took someone of their rank to explain to them how to do it right. The rest of their courtiers were scared.
Marie was not a great queen but she was a good one. She did everything that was expected of a french queen. She gave birth to a dauphin and a spare. She held court at Versailles more than adequately. And when her husband had a mental breakdown, she sat in council and helped him ruled. Had her husband listened to her…
I think they were both dealt a terrible situation but Marie Antoinette dealt better with her situation that Sissi did. I am not pitting them against each other just comparing. Marie Antoinette didn't get any advice from her mother and was very under educated and neglected until she had to marry the dauphin. After…
What it would have done would have been to clear the queen's name. All the rumors and hatred among the common people started because everyone thought that the queen was so expensive that she ran the country in deficit and pushed it to the brink of bankruptcy and then they went wild. Because the accounting books of the…
Marie Antoinette had the enormous pride of the House of Austria and I think she was secure in the knowledge that she had done nothing wrong and thought she was going to enter heaven. Also years of ruling over the most polished court in Europe could not be shaken off even in death.
