The wife of King Louis XVI, the queen from 1774 to 1791, she led a controversial life being very fond of luxury in a time of economic crisis and Revolution in France. This reputation was used as much as possible by the revolutionaries who found it to be a good reason to incriminate the royal couple and the whole absolute monarchy while they were at it.<\/p>\n<p>Born in Vienna on the 2nd of November 1755 and executed in Â鶹APP on the 16th of October 1793, Marie-Antoinette of Habsbourg-Lorraine was the daughter of the very powerful Francis the Ist, Roman Emperor, and Maria-Theresa, Queen of Hungaria and Bohemia. Her luxurious life was ended with a beheading, after a mock-trial during which she was accused of preposterous things, and she came down in history in an ambiguous position, as an unreasonable monarch with no regard for the well-being of her people and at the same time as a victim of the bloodthirsty revolutionaries blinded by power during the Terror, that period of chaos that followed the Revolution of 1789.<\/p>\n<p>That ambiguity coupled with political efforts to use History as a justification for events and political regimes have led to Marie-Antoinette being the object of a lot of false rumors and assumptions, and have led to forget some details about her life. In this article, I will try to establish a list of the top 10 fun facts about Marie-Antoinette! Here are the top 10 fun facts about Marie-Antoinette! <\/p>\n<h4>1.) She was actually Austrian<\/h4>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/queen-marie-1.jpg\" alt=\"Top 10 fun facts about Marie-Antoinette\" width=\"650\" height=\"513\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Born in Vienna from Hungarian parents, Marie-Antoinette was, despite her very French-sounding name, indeed Austrian. That is actually a big part of why the French people don\u2019t like her. As a foreigner, they saw her having even less legitimacy than another queen would have had, without even speaking about her scandalous lifestyle.<\/p>\n<h4>2.) She was married to the King when she was only 14 years old<\/h4>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/king-and-queen.jpg\" alt=\"Top 10 fun facts about Marie-Antoinette\" width=\"650\" height=\"434\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The King himself was 15, and their alliance was a way to strengthen the new alliance between France and Austria after several years of war. Although it was quite normal for royal families to marry their children very early, 14 was especially young. She was then crowned at the age of 18.<\/p>\n<h4>3.) She was idolized before becoming the queen<\/h4>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/loved-from-before.jpg\" alt=\"loved-from-before\" width=\"650\" height=\"369\" \/><\/p>\n<p>When she was first presented to the French people, it caused a huge stir among the population with a gathering of 50 000 people in the capital and some 30 people being trampled to death. Her reputation changed radically in the years following her accession to the throne!<\/p>\n<h4>4.) It took 7 years for her and her husband to consummate their marriage<\/h4>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/queen-and-king.jpg\" alt=\"Top 10 fun facts about Marie-Antoinette\" width=\"650\" height=\"512\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Was it due to her and her husband\u2019s young age, the fact that she didn\u2019t feel attracted to him, the king\u2019s impotence due to a serious health problem or any number of other possibilities? No one really knows, but we do know that the father of the King decided to take action after 6 years and have a cousin intervene to teach the young King what needed to be done, and that he was actually quite successful since the King\u2019s first daughter came to life less than a year later! There are some rumors about the alleged father of that child, but there is no reason to think it isn\u2019t the king\u2019s.<\/p>\n<h4>5.) She wasn\u2019t as unreasonable when it came to spending as the French people like to pretend she was<\/h4>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/not-a-spendthrift.jpg\" alt=\"not-a-spendthrift\" width=\"650\" height=\"389\" \/><\/p>\n<p>While she was very fond of the Â鶹APP life-style, she merely adapted to it when she entered the court. Other members of the royal family, like the King\u2019s brother, actually spent a lot more on clothes and entertainment than she ever did, but being a woman and a foreigner, the revolutionaries turned their resentment towards her more than the other members of the family.<\/p>\n<h4>6.) She probably actually never said the phrase \u201cthey don\u2019t have any bread, well let them have cake then\u201d<\/h4>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/marie-and-bread.jpg\" alt=\"Top 10 fun facts about Marie-Antoinette\" width=\"650\" height=\"370\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This infamous saying that has been attributed to the queen had actually already been attributed to a number of other people in the years before she even entered the French territory. But the Revolutionaries used it to incriminate the monarchy with shocking pamphlets.<\/p>\n<h4>7.) She had a fantasy village constructed in Â鶹APP<\/h4>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/fantasy-village-versailles.jpg\" alt=\"fantasy-village-versailles\" width=\"650\" height=\"424\" \/><\/p>\n<p>She had a fantasy village constructed in which she and her friends could pretend to be working, called le Petit Hameau. The construction of this costly little haven in a time of deep economic crisis didn\u2019t please the population, and definitely owns its spot in this top 10 fun facts about Marie-Antoinette.<\/p>\n<h4>8.) She took incredible care of her hair<\/h4>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/marie-antoinette-1.jpg\" alt=\"marie-antoinette\" width=\"650\" height=\"427\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Marie-Antoinette\u2019s hair was a sight worth seeing when she wore it up. Her hairdresser was one of her closest friends, and her hair would sometimes rise up to four feet over her head, with feathers, jewels and once even a replica of a ship of the French marine!<\/p>\n<h4>9.) In order to execute her, her accusers used ridiculously trumped-up charges<\/h4>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/marie-antoinette-execution.jpg\" alt=\"marie-antoinette-execution\" width=\"650\" height=\"343\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In addition to her very costly life, she was accused of high treason, sexual crimes such as promiscuity with a lot of male and female mistresses, which history cannot prove at all, and even incest with her son Louis-Charles who was forced to testify against her\u2026<\/p>\n<h4>10.) There is a city named after her in the US<\/h4>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/city-of-marietta.jpg\" alt=\"city-of-Marietta\" width=\"650\" height=\"333\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The city of Marietta, Ohio, was named like that by American patriots in order to celebrate the help the French State had provided in their fight against the British.<\/p>\n<p>All in all, Marie-Antoinette is an ambiguous historical character who was hated for a long time but has come to know a certain redemption with time. Her extravagant life provided us with a number of fun facts while the revolutionary times gave her a tragic ending. The facts of this top ten fun facts about Marie-Antoinette are a good proof of her ambiguity and of the injustice she had to live through, while being quite unreasonable herself!<\/p>\n<div id=\"disco-3360900180\" class=\"disco-amazon-box-2024 disco-entity-placement\"><div style=\"width: 100%; border: 2px solid lightgray; padding: 3% 6% 3% 3%; border-radius: 5px;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Planning a trip to Â鶹APP ?
