Marie Antoinette never really said, let them eat cake. The actual words in translation were, let them eat rolls. A toothache that affected Queen Namasol of Uganda, Africa also affected the entire population of a neighboring province called Vuma. The queen, in her anguish of pain, consulted some tribal witches who said the queen's toothache would be cured if she put the entire population of Vuma to death. The witch's weird cure was tried. 25,000 people were driven into Lake Victoria and drowned. But mass murder didn't cure the toothache. Believe It or Not!
