Louis XVI Becomes King Of France
The King of France before Louis XVI was his grandfather, Louis XV was born on February 15, 1710 in the Palace of Versailles. He had ascended the throne at the age of five, when he was a young child, his regent Philippe II, Duke Of Orleans took over in 1715 and ruled until his death in 1723. Louis XV had an extremely long reign at around 59 years on the throne ruling from 1715-1774. His coordination was on 25 October 1722 in Royal Basilica in Saint Denis, France which is now a suburb of Paris, France. He reigned through many events throughout the history of France, with the most notable being the War of the Quadruple Alliance, War Of The Austrian Succession, and the Seven Years War.
King Louis XV died on May 10, 1774 in the Palace of Versailles, the same place in which he was born, and the throne went to his grandson Louis, who would become King Louis XVI of France, his coordination was at Reims Cathedral in Reims France which is a city in Northeastern France. In our timeline he on 21 January 1793, and later his wife Marie Antoinette on 16 October 1793 who was the Queen of France, would be executed by a revolutionary mob in Paris during the French Revolution, But in this alternate timeline where the French revolution would be a lot different from the one of our timeline, King Louis XVI would live to continue his reign as King of France and stay on the French throne, in this alternate timeline he would live to be a great king, possibly one of the greatest, because he wanted to reform France, help the lower classes, and was a huge promoter of the Enlightenment within France. France under King Louis XVI in this alternate timeline would end up becoming an enlightened monarchy.
