追加: 2026-04-29

[00:00:00]Welcome to Versailles, the seat of absolute power. This year, Lou moved his entire government here to establish absolute control over the nobility.

[00:00:08]Every dawn, the entire court watches him wake.

[00:00:13]A duke then hands him his morning shirt.

[00:00:17]His proximity to the king is the only currency.

[00:00:21]He controls even the gardens from one window.

[00:00:24]>> This gallery has 357 mirrors total.

[00:00:32]6,000 candles burn here twice every week. The whole court follows him through here daily.

[00:00:40]>> 10,000 people live inside these palace walls.

[00:00:43]>> Hel, thousand rubber works. 36,000 work built this over 20 years.

[00:00:48]>> Seagull courtates. His bed chamber sits exactly on the solar axis. Every royal palace built afterward copied this design. Nobody ever left here more powerful. I'm Alice.
