Alright so you know how sometimes your country just completely loses its mind? Well 18th century France said ‘hold my wine.’ We’re talking about a king who would rather make locks than run a country, a queen with an actual boat in her hair, angry mobs storming a prison to find like seven guys, and eventually a short king who tried to conquer all of Europe then got wrecked by snow. Grab a drink because this story is absolutely unhinged from start to finish. Fair warning I might get some details slightly wrong but the vibes are 100% accurate. This is the French Revolution like your high school textbook was too scared to tell you. You’re welcome.
