The Tragic Life of Marie Antoinette’s Only Surviving Child | Marie Thérèse

[@rosemartasgaminghoard]

They mentally tortured and physically beat a ten year old boy who had done nothing wrong. He had committed no crime but died in prison never knowing what had happened to his parents or his sister. How could they live with themselves?

[@tanyadolgovsky4234]

Disgusting by all accounts. Children had done nothing yet paid the ultimate sacrifice. Here I am not just talking about Louis 17th but also tzar Nicolas 2nd 5 children. It was cruel and unnecessary. These children did not harm anyone yet were subjected to inhuman treatment and ultimately death. Humans looking for power lose humility and become power and money obsessed creatures. Unfortunately this is true today. Our government is out of its mind with executive orders and mandates.

[@thebiologic6139]

Keep in mind the fact that Marie and Louis starved thousands of people, and caused thousands of deaths from starvation whist spoiling themselves. The people who sentenced them to execution were angry as a result of the suffering they faced. And considering how many atrocities have been committed by people over the centuries (genocide, slavery, torture, etc) it is very evident that people can live with themselves whilst hurting others.

[@sacred-chan157]

Was trying to find a good narration about her for months! Also she survived till the age of 72, WOW that's hard even today.

[@honeybunch5765]

Interesting, I know so many people who are still very young at 72, it seems like more people are reaching 80 and beyond. 72 was the average 30 years ago but maybe it varies in different parts of the world and cultures. I'm South African and live in this small coastal town where people come on vacation or to retire mostly. The old timers here are kicking it strong, many are looking really healthy and young for their age. I agree for that time it was really an achievement to reach past 50, the average age was 35 if I'm not mistaken?

[@kaseylisk5019]

Keeping in the “royal bloodline” was one of the weirdest things I’ve never understood. Could have been the very reason some “royals” acted as they did.

[@skrrtskrrt2410]

Lmao no wonder history was batsh*t crazy. We were mostly ruled by inbreds, not only were they physically mutated, mentally as well, and then drugs used for medicine(hint: not the legal kind), unidentified mental illnesses and probably more I haven't mentioned yet.

[@NathanDudani]

@@skrrtskrrt2410 "legal"

[@amandawarren779]

Oh it's definitely the biggest reason they acted how they did. The inbreeding caused madness in lots of royals.

[@andrepettersson175]

It was too keep wealth and power from being spread out and lost. Marrying outside the bloodline worked well during the middle ages too centralize power and create the nation states we know today through aquisition of new lands through marriages... "You happy Austria will marry". But after the middle ages marrying inside the bloodline was needed too keep that centralized power and the territories in question. Ofcourse that leads too alot of new problems, including the birth of people like Carlos the second of Spain who was called "The monster" beacuse of how many defects he had. His death led too the war of the Spanish succession and the loss of Spain and her colonies too the Bourbon Dynasty from the Habsburg Dynasty. It was a dangerous balancing act, something the Habsburgs managed relatively well in Austria unlike Spain.

Thank you for a very interesting and informative video! I truly feel for her and her little brother who must’ve suffered greatly at the hand of the revolutionaries. I do not believe it’s very revolutionary to mistreat or abuse children. It’s absolutely cowardly and a complete abomination!! I cannot have pity on or give compassion to anyone who would hurt and / or mistreat a child / children. I’m certain that the peasants suffered greatly, but that gave them no right whatsoever to abuse children, aristocratic or not. I hope they repented. As far as I’m concerned, if they didn’t repent, I hope they’ve had to answer for their abuse of those innocent children!!

[@aloiafitualatamalelagi8943]

I agree! I know France 🇫🇷 was under a great financial crisis at the time but that shouldn't have given them a reason to treat the royal family like this! I still can't believe the abuse and torture they went through , especially the children , I'm honestly saddened for their eldest child , she had to witness this all and I wonder if that's the reason she never had children due to all the trauma.

"Four months before the revolution of 1830, on March 29, King Ferdinand of Spain abolished Salic law in favor of his daughter, Isabella, to the prejudice of his younger brother, Charles.
