Joseph Guillotin did not invent the guillotine. Decapitating machines had been in use in various countries for hundreds of years. He simply advocated its use. Boy, where does the "History" Channel get its facts from?
@LotusMelody Who's nagging? I answered your question. How can you nag with just one two-letter word? But cheer up. Maybe you just suck at French. Quel dommage!
I wonder why this program makes Louis seem like a loser. In reality, he didn't want to be king and he actually wished to resign. He's a very tragic character.
Curiously - why doesn't it speak of the fair number of the nobility who came to Versailles, along with their own supporters - to defend the King in an amazing act of loyalty? I mean - he obviously had more support than some suggest by the fact it was noted one lord turned up to fight with no more than an iron poker...
Maximilien Robespierre is like Jose Rizal of Philippines that is against to war because they know that their country is unready and the enemy of them will win.
the Jacobins and other "groups that stand for liberty and freedom of religion" killed thousands upon thousands of Christians across France just for being Christian, mercilessly and without remorse or cause.
Oh my god, things did not happen as to claim that one morning Revolutionnaries woke up and stated that they had to kill as many christians as possible...bit more subtle than that -
Imagine that a few miles could have changed history, what if they did escape!!! Question being: If king louis was supposedly so smart, why didn't he just make a fake passport???
i swear it was tobias schmidt the designed the first guillotine, and that guillotin even opposed execution. he merely recommended the german invention of the guillotine during this period of the revolution
"...turning old fashioned decapitation into a human procedure?" Even when I re-read this I still have to wonder. Maybe it's becasue I'm achild of our time and I have grown up in the 90's... ???
The next revolution will happen in america sooner than later if : the oil, gas, and coal companies don't get out of the Whitehouse, and if the government doesn't get out of the oil, gas,and coal business.

@Iamthenewworldorder What good is violence and destruction if those who look upon your works and despair don't understand why you did it? Might as well say something while you've got everyone's attention.
this is the biggest BS I have ever heard. the 7 year war bankrupted france & they owed money to the banks which they did not repay; the bankers did them in. it is so obvious, it is staring you in the face. then the bankers using economists & businessmen merchants took over the kingdoms, and they never left go of the countries since then; then they went to America and took over the USA in 1912. any questions? visit the website MayaBell in dot com. become enlightened; start thinking for yourselves
It's funny how the French are always still doing art, even when they are engaging in violence...they like to destroy symbolic cultural artistic achievements, and look at how they behead people and put makeup on the heads...lol i love it
Lviv was always Ukrainian, even when it was under Polish occupation, colonization and exploitation. Ukrainian people were not in charge, but they built Lviv with their hands. Polish people are reading Polish history, which is exaggerated and twisted, to show that Poles were good and kind - the truth is, Poles were the oppressors of the Ukrainian people.

The French Revolution is something everyone should learn from.
The first part of it-this part-is what TO DO.
The second part-once they have taken control-is what NOT to do.
