Louis XVI

Louis XVI awalnya dicintai rakyatnya, namun ketidakcekapannya dalam pemerintahan dan sikapnya yang konservatif membuatkan rakyatnya berbalik membencinya. Isterinya ialah Marie Antoinette, dan bersamanya mereka mempunyai empat orang anak:

  • Marie-Thérèse-Charlotte
  • Louis-Joseph-Xavier-François
  • Louis-Charles
  • Sophie-Beatrix
