Why was king Louis XVI executed by the people of France?

Hope this helped :)

Explanation:

Louis XVI was executed, officially, because of treason; he had been accused of betraying the French nation to the Austrians. Now, in fairness, Louis XVI had pretty clearly tried to flee Paris in order to organize a counter-revolution. This soured opinions on the King, and, in 1792, when the armies of the Coalition looked on the verge of taking Paris, their commander said “You’d better not hurt Louis!” he was accused of being part of an enemy plot, deposed, and executed months later. So, clear cut, right? Louis had been trying to organize an uprising, that’s treason, he should be executed. Well, not quite.

See, the prevailing narrative is that Louis XVI was never a supporter of the Revolution. He fled Paris because he hated it and was looking for an opportunity. This isn’t entirely true. Louis, remember, at any point could have said “no” to the proposed reforms of the Declaration of the Rights of Man in 1789 and probably would have won. The fact that he didn’t shows that he at least was amenable to some reform. Louis, it should be emphasized, was not a Conservative. When the Bastille was stormed he was in the middle of trying to push through a tax in the Parlemente that would have increased taxes on the nobility and clergy. So it’s not as if he was some despot waiting for the first chance he got to restore Feudalism.

were at first enthusiastic in support of the revolution. however, over time divisions of opinion became apparent between federalists and anti-federalists
