I think Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette should have been killed in the French Revolution. The royal couple had to move out of the castle because of a mob that marched Versailles. In August 1792 they were arrested by the sans-culottes. In September the monarchy was abolished by the national convention. In November evidence of Louis XVI counter revolutionary intrigues with Austria and other foreign nations. Marie Antoinette was later found guilty of treason and was put to death
early punishments were brutal, disgusting, and horrific. such as water torture, spike torture, and bamboo torture. back then, people were blood thirty vultures, watching people die.
water/ocean the closer you were it was easier for merchants and trades to go from (Europe I'm guessing) to the New World (also guessing) also good farm land to plant crops for food (the south was popular because it didn't get too cold in the winter and the soil was good/fertile and not rocky)
