@birdman29 I took a cursory look at that 'list' of yours and picked up one major fault, The French Revolution and the hardship (lack of bread, bad or no crops) was mostly caused by a volcanic eruption on Iceland
which caused 2 years of 'no sunshine' in Northern Europe, hence no crops, cold weather, but also the French court was deeply indebted, still paying off the debt incurred by the Sunking, Louis XIV - 1 1/2 generations before, who had was into costly warfare, but also burdened his subjects with debt just generally, but specifically for the building of his palace in Paris "Versailles"
Of ocurse you would say it's all Marie Antoinette's fault . . . . I admire the depth of your research.
and I didn't bother to check the rest - this was just one glaring misquote I actually knew about and had researched.
