As for Louis XVI, in the teaching and research of the history of the French Revolution, people always describe him as an autocratic monarch, a tyrant, regardless of state affairs, living a luxurious life, and being accompanied by locks all day long, nicknamed "locksmith". On the day when the people occupied the Bastille, he still wrote in his diary that nothing happened today. In a word, it was Louis XVI's fatuity and cruelty that triggered the French Revolution and sent himself to the guillotine.

Louis XVI has always been a wimp, afraid of offending nobles all day. Not only did he have no interest in state affairs, but he also obeyed the insatiable Queen Marie Antoinette, leaving the country in deep debt and losing many wars.
