Absolutism
Dauphin Louis Auguste was also known as Louis, Dauphin of France, and later became King Louis XVI of France. He married Marie Antoinette, Archduchess of Austria. Their marriage was the catalyst to the French Revolution. Marie Antoinette embraced the lavish lifestyle of the French royal court with enthusiasm. She had little regard for the poor and struggling peasants, and spent money frivolously. For her attitude, she became the symbol of the people's hatred for the old regime during the French Revolution. When the French Revolution began, Marie Antionette supported the old regime. When the National Convention established the French Republic in 1792, Marie Antoinette and the king were imprisoned. Antoinette was beheaded on 16 October 1793.

This position was advanced under Louis XV and was made even worse as a result of the Seven Years Wars and the French aid to the United States during the American Revolution under the leadership of King Louis XVI. By 1789 the National debt had developed into a crisis which became the French Revolution.
