King Louis XIV of France | The Sun King (Versailles)

"I know who I am. I am Louis XIV, and I am the King of France."
During the second half of the 17th century, King Louis XIV was a very powerful man who built and extended upon his father's old hunting lodge called Versailles. Believing in divine rights and his kingship to be destined by God (like most monarchs during that period cough Charles I of England), this made Louis XIV very ambitious and therefore dangerous. Inviting all the nobles of France, he created a mini world, a kingdom within a kingdom. In Versailles, everyone had to abide by his rules and attend certain events in a certain way at a specific time. Feeling almost like a prison I imagine. Versailles is still one of the most beautifully built places on Earth and I will end up going there one day! This TV show was a really great series and I was gutted it ended the way it did. George Blagden is outstanding in this role, as is Alexander Vlahos who plays his brother Phillipe. I also thought George was brilliant as Athelstan in Vikings prior to this role.

With how long Louis XIV reigned (72 years, 1643-1715) they could have made a dozen or more seasons showing his reigns progression.

[@stacydavidson4853]

Four seasons were not enough. I miss this series.

[@hiworld7306]

The show was brilliant. This really protrays how Louis rose from being a king controlled by the nobles, to Louis the great, Le roi soleil. He was truly blessed by the sun.

[@yvonneevie9301]

I miss Versaille, it was a great TV show

[@bettinedosser2150]

I’m over the moon. I adored the TV series. Acting, costumes, everything about it. My very favourite drama of all time.

[@JustTrying2MakeitToJesus]

I love this series and wish Netflix has not canceled it. I've been waited for season 4 and just found out. It was so good I've watched it a few times.

[@gemstonevidder]

Honestly I am so happy to see a Versailles video in my sub box! This show was so underrated and this video is amazing and beautiful!! The quotes were so well picked and ahhh I ended up tearing up!! Such an amazing edit!

[@darrylskylar8757]

The show is PHENOMENAL!!!!

[@EdenRochin]

I finished this show after I came back from Paris. I cannot get enough of Versailles. Literally lives in my heart. Also he has such beautiful eyes. ❤ beautiful and heartbreaking show.

[@kathyroden8558]

The series was outstanding and hated that it ended... I am going to Versailles in Sept and cannot wait !

[@rejmons1]

The Mirror Gallery in Versailles is truly amazing! Sun-drenched and dignified. Only a few galleries, halls or chambers in whole world can match it in dignity or beauty.

[@zarina2730]

Я смотрела этот сериал 2 раза!!!❤❤❤Я в восторге!!!!

[@user-gi8pk9uc7q]

I love the way they got the "I AM the state" , or in French, "L'etat, c'est moi!" into the show!

[@brendamills1050]

I have watched this series at least 5 times. I love it. My all time favorite.

[@whichwitch941]

I miss Versailles. Thank you for beautiful edit❤️

[@Innomen]

This is one hell of an edit. Well captured! Such a shame. This show could have gone for like 50 seasons. The man's life was a spectacle from start to finish, a European Ramses II.

[@uno1r]

Best historical show ever and I've seen many

[@sandrahatherley2184]

Loved it all but especially loved the king's brother....he was beautiful

[@helenmand]

Oh I just finished watching this yesterday! This is one of my favorite tributes of yours for some reason. I loved the beginning so much and the music and the voiceovers... Wow, excellent work!
