      It gets really tragic, when you realize that almost all the things they hated about her, weren't really said by her or she had no choice. The cake-line? Not hers. If she dressed extravagant, they called her out on being spoiled and wasting money. If she reused dresses, they complained about her not supporting local businesses.

Quite apart from the morally corrosive example of the cult of talentless celebrity, nepotism and grovelling to unearned wealth which our monarchy represents.

    I like your joke about the Royals, about no one visiting Versailles if there's no one living there, but it raised a question I don't know the answer to so maybe you can answer it. Do British Royalty own the estates of their residence? If they do, then theoretically they could close them off to the public.

    • @Emmet_Moore
      @Emmet_Moore 2 роки тому +11

      Some royal residences are the private property of the royal family (eg. Sandringham and Balmoral are owned by the Queen) so they could in theory shut them off completely, and for most of the year they already are. Others belong to the Crown, rather than to any specific person, so are basically public property. Although the royal family live in the Crown Estates it’s a semi-independent body called the Crown Estate Commissioners that runs them and they bring money directly into the Treasury so there’s no chance of them closing them off to visitors.

    OH - the diamond necklace joke is SO real. Im just doing the French revolution now and there was a diamond necklace scandal about her not paying.
    [she was actually innocent] EDIT: cos someone asked me. The previous king commissioned it for his mistress, Marie A said she didn't want it. The jewellers offered it to everyone trying to sell it. THEN a con man and woman got a bishop to buy it on credit, saying the Queen M-A wanted it but could not be seen to publically buy it. the bishop bought it, the con guys stripped and sold the diamonds and sold them, then the jewelers asked the bishop for payment - he went to the queen to ask for the money and the crime was descovered...
    The Bishop and the queen were totally exonerated, the criminals were caught and executed but the French PUBLIC got the takeaway that the queen was buying diamond necklaces when they were starving and she WASNT even paying for them.
    She was also hated for being an Austrian slut and for not having enough kids...
    Louis the last made every effort to be accomodating to the crowds, he offered to be a constitutional monarch, he was NOT a bad person, if anything he was TOO nice.
    Revolutions dont happen when you have EVIL tyrannical leaders, they happen when you have BAD leaders who cant fix problems - life Boris Johnson and Rishi Sunak who today said "it would be silly to help struggling people with their energy bills"

    I noticed that you did Mary Queen of Scots with a French accent, which makes sense since she was brought up in France. But Marie Antoinette was brought up in Austria, yet you do her with a French accent too. Can you explain the reasons for this? (You just like doing French accents, don't you?)

    • @Neion8
      @Neion8 2 роки тому +36

      Tbf, Marie Antoinette moved to France when she was 14 and died at 37 - so there'd be plenty of time for her to catch the accent. Whereas, Mary Queen of Scots moved to France when she was 5, lived there for 13 years and continued to have many close connections to France - be it French people in her court, the letters she wrote while in prison (which were written in French) or the fact that her final wish was to be buried in France. As M,QoS left France 4 years senior to MA leaving Austria, she'd probably have kept the accent a little more over the years - plus it's always been fashionable in the aristocracies to be more associated with France than their own countries of origin.

      @@Neion8: That's enough time to learn a new accent if she worked at it, but a bit late to acquire it naturally. My understanding is that she was not a great student and never learnt to speak or write French like a native, although I assume that her Austrian accent weakened over time.

      I hope they were joking! It's unlikely Marie Antoinette said the phrase "let them eat cake." The phrase was written in a story by Rousseau when she was 9 and published years before she supposedly said it. It's also doubtful she repeated it, and records show the phrase wasn't attributed to her until 50ish years after her death. She deserves some blame for the finances, of course, but no more so than her husband.

Moreover, what really endepted the country was the War of independance in USA, in which the French fought alongside americans against the british. Marie-Antoinette lead herself a very extravagant lifestyles, but it really wasn't what created the huge dept of the crown at the time.

      I also didn't want to get into the debt accumulation issue or the inherent distrust of Marie Antionette thing in the initial comment. I would hope since today's leaders are inheriting debt they didn't accrue, people would understand that most of the time, debt is not one leader's fault. But I'm probably naïve, so thank you for making it explicit.
