Funny enough, heads started rolling in the French Revolution right after an idiotic manchild at the head of the country who was very popular a short time before attempted to sell his nation out to foreign powers to maintain the death-grip of the aristocracy on the public.

Just an innocent observation.

Notably, there was a grain shortage at the time. The first people to die were bakers who were accused of, often innocently, hoarding bread. Louis was ineffective at dealing with the shortage, and people were hungry.

And Marie was still throwing lavish parties. At least that was the common perception. It didn’t help that France had emptied it’s coffers to fight the British on American soil.
