ESSAY : Wedded, Unbedded, and Beheaded- The Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette story

Write a 8 page paper about Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette. Make it chronologically starting on a bit about each. Who are they, when did they get married, why did they get married, how was married life, 7 yrs to consummate? did they entertain and have parties or kept to themselves with personal hobbies. What about the Swedish count Axel von Fersen? What were
the good and bad of his rulings and when and why and how did it all came to an end.
Talk about Versailles. Where is it? How is came to be and why was it built the way it was built…didnt he build a separate quarters for his workers to
keep a close eye? Not a trusting person? How big was this place? How many rooms? Thousands of fountains? When did they move here. What is the current status of this place once they were killed. Wasn\’t there a movie made about this place? And their bodies? What became of their kids?
Add as many pictures as you like. The pages with pictures will not count in your 8 pages so its ok if you submit 15 pages. Just add them in at the end after your paper with a short quick note under each if you like. These pictures will more than likely assist you in making your powerpoint presentation or at least give me a visual as I am reading and grading your
paper.
Make sure to use a book as one of your references. Bibliography required.
You will later turn this paper into a powerpoint presentation to give in
class so be fun, creative and let it flow smoothly.
