Marie Antoinette (November 2, 1755 - October 16, 1793) was Queen of France and she was an Archduchess of Austria. Daughter of Empress Maria Theresa of Austria and the Emperor Francis I of the Habsburg dynasty, she was married to the heir of the French throne (later Louis XVI of France) in order to confirm the alliance between Austria and France. Her Austrian background made her position at the French court rather difficult. She and her husband were executed at the height of the French Revolution.
