Which queen was found guilty of treason and guillotined?
Correct Answer:
Marie Antoinette
Explanation:
The question tests knowledge of what happened to royalty during the most radical phase of the French Revolution, when the revolutionary courts used the guillotine to punish those seen as enemies of the new order. Among the listed queens, the one who fits the description of being found guilty of treason and then executed by guillotine is Marie Antoinette. She was tried by the Revolutionary Tribunal in 1793, convicted of treason and related charges, and executed by guillotine in October of that year. The other queens listed lived in earlier periods and did not face the revolutionary charges or the execution by guillotine that the Revolution carried out.
