The cardinal was tricked, he was backstabbed, and he was quite possibly bamboozled
-
It's a shame that the French people were so quick to lose their heads over the incident
-
To be fair, Marie Antoniete was easy to use as a scapegoat because she was Austrian.
-
largest diamond necklace ever: no my hair is a boat: YES
-
An Austrian Queen, a Cardinal, a scheming courtier woman, a diamond necklace. Serious Three Musketeers vibes.
-
You know you are unpopular when someone forges your signature, you expose them and still get the blame. Let’s just hope she doesn’t lose her head over the whole affair…
-
Marie: * shivers * Louis: Something wrong dear? Marie: I feel like another misconception about me has just been ingrained into popular culture.
-
Actual Marie Antoinette: "the nation needs battleships, not necklaces" Fictional Marie Antoinette: "let them eat cake?" The irony.
-
WAIT! ARE YOU TELLING ME IT WASN'T EVEN MARIE ANTONIETE FAULT THE WHOLE SCANDAL?? MY LIFE IS A LIE!!
-
I think Marie Antoinette deserves a TV show of her own. To maybe clean up all the wrong assumptions people make about her. Some show like The Reign, or Medici the Magnificent
-
"Jeanne died in London as a result of injuries sustained after falling from her hotel room window, while hiding from debt collectors. A contemporary report in The Times stated that she was found "terribly mangled, her left eye cut out - one of her arms and both her legs are broken." Who says Karma isn't real?
-
Who's the Scapegoat? Viewers: Jean de la Motte The Third Estate: Marie Antionette Extra Credits fans: Robert Walpole
-
Words can't describe the emotions I felt when I learned that the Affair of the Diamond Necklace was real after watching Rose of Versailles
-
Madame du Barry: speech - 100 Julie d'Aubigny: horny bard Otto von Bismarck: keeps making his saving throws Ibn Battuta: keeps ignoring the railroad Cheng I Sao: shows up halfway through the game and accidentally becomes the DM Joan of Arc: thought she was going to play a normal game Genghis Khan: whatever it's called when you 100% Mount and Blade Mansa Musa: guys I found the infinite bag of money I don't have a problem, you have a problem.
-
Poor Marie Antoinette,pretty much everything that could've gone wrong went wrong for her.
-
Now we need a series on the French Revolution.
-
5:07 "My little Cabbage..." me to my daughter: "Haha, French people used names of vegetables as pet names for their loved ones... isn't that funny Pumpkin?"
-
As far as I remember, Marie Antoinette spending wasn't really that bad. She was just mostly hated for being foreigner and being easy target to hate. Even legendary quote about cake wasn't really her, but just attributed to her.
-
2:57 Not an illegitimate child of Henry II, but a descendant of one, since he had been dead for more than 200 years by then.
-
"The beacons are lit!!! France calls for aid" "And Rohan will answer"
