Answer

The age of 14 was considered to be the age of royal majority during Francis II's time. This meant that at this age, a person was considered to be old enough to take on the responsibilities of being a king or queen. In Francis II's case, he became king at the age of 10, and so his mother, Marie Antoinette, served as regent until he reached the age of 14.
