    The voice of the narrator is much better in the second part than in the first one,

    Nobles had to live in the palace so that the king could keep an eye on them-he was afraid from rebellion.

    Much different! The court had extravagant amusements day and night. Balls weren't the only festivities. Operas, ballets, and fireworks were part of life day and night. The King kept his court in dependent subjection by requiring an extravagant lifestyle that ruined them so they would be dependent on his caprices.

    The idea that one would be faithful to their spouse was laughable in Versilles. -- What a rotten joke!

      yes, we watched Versailles series and there were lots and lots of gambling and sex. i dont know if it was true with the real life but watching this vid, i think they were true, indeed

      Marriages were arranged as to be most beneficial to the family. Rarely did spouses love each other but Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette not only respected each other they did care for one another. Louis XIV was married and had so many mistresses who bore him many children who several of them ended up marrying into noble families. Lots of inbreeding there.

    At first blush, people like hefner for mansion took notice. A guilded cage - where the illusion surpassed the reality.

    Interesting subject-matter is sorta ruined by the awkward cadence of the robot, I mean, narrator.

    I would bring Love to Versailles as there was obviously no love there at all. Only stupid games
