Marie Antoinette is famous for saying, “Let them eat cake!” in response to the fact that many of France’s lower class were starving…


Perhaps it was she who was responsible for the French Revolution with her involvement in the Diamond Necklace

Affair…!

King George III (1738 – 1820) was England’s monarch during the American Revolution. In 1776, America pulled away from Great Britain to gain independence. Many in Britain viewed George III as a failure, since the colonies were lost under his reign.

He was the first son of Frederick, Prince of Wales

and Augusta.

He happily married “Charlotte of Mecklinburg- Strelitz” in 1761.

George was afflicted with mental illness, specifically porphyria, as early as 1765. Reign was given to his son George, the Prince Regent, in 1811. George III died blind, deaf and mad at Windsor Castle on January 29, 1820

England, under reign of King George III.

At that time, London was a dangerous place with a

lot of crime, particularly robbery.

Also, grave robbing was occurring at that time, as seen in the novel.

Under reign of Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette, came the French

Revolution.

Third estate citizens, or commoners, were very heavily taxed and starving.
  • The French Revolution was brought about by the suffering of France’s peasants, who were literally starving and the general social problems in France.
  • However, rumor has it that Marie

  • Antoinette’s Diamond Necklace Affair was a catalyst of the Revolution.

Event:

The Bastille was stormed by the mob, joined by some of the King's soldiers on July 14, 1789. The commander of the prison, “de Launay”, attempted to surrender, but the mob denied his request. He, like all guards, was killed as they poured through the gates.

Later in the day the prisoners were released. This event is still annually celebrated in France.
