The son of Marie Josephe of Saxony and the Dauphin Louis Ferdinand, this political figure‟s marriage to a certain Austrian Hapsburg princess was overwhelmingly opposed by his native country, due to the fact that Austria had dragged his nation into a costly defeat at the hands of Great Britain during the Seven Years War.
