Marie Antoinette

During the 1700’s, Marie Antoinette served as the Queen of France. Born an Austrian princess, Marie married King Louis XVI. She became Queen when she was just 15 years old. As time went on, she made a lot of mistakes that made her rather unpopular among the French people. During the French Revolution, she was captured and beheaded via guillotine. The story of this young teenager living such an extravagant life in Versailles was very popular, and it was even made into a movie called Marie Antoinette starring Kirsten Dunst in 2006.
