It's 1559. Francis II, King of France is celebrating the conclusion of the Italian Wars, when he tragically dies in a joust. This unleashes a civil war between Catholics and Huguenots, that will develop into a European war. After the Tumult of Amboise Catherine of Medici and the Politiques propose concessions. But after the Massacre of Vassy compromise seems impossible.
The Prince of Conde and Admiral Coligny rally against the Guise. The Battle of Dreux is won by the Catholics led by Anne de Montmorency. Nevertheless the moderates win and King Charles IX issues the Edict of Amboise.
The War resumes spurred on by the Catholic Conspiracy and the Surprise at Meux, but peace is achieved after the Battle of Saint Denis. The third war kicks off with the Battle of Jarnac and the Battle of Montcontour. With the Dutch Revolt the war widens even more. Sectarianism reaches its peak at the Saint Bartholomew's Day Massacre.
The War of the Three Henrys proves to be the most destructive one. Henry III is ousted from Paris after the Day of the Barricades and the Catholic League becomes supreme.
But Henry of Navarre defeats Mayenne at the Battle of Arques and the Battle of Ivry. After the Siege of Paris and his conversion, Henry IV becomes king. The Edict of Nantes is proclaimed in 1598, ending the French Wars of Religion.

My maternal ancestors fled France from this religious persecution, they found refuge at Stepney in London, then after 140 years they migrated to New Zealand, after 2 generations my ancestor migrated to Australia
Are you a Protestant?

A lot of Hugenotes fled to religious freedom in the Netherlands, which helped in the coming years to spur the Netherlands into a a golden age. I came across a Hugenote church near the Hague that served as a monument. Great to have received this video from the YT algorithm to learn more about those times. Subbed as well!
Lots of Huguenots came from the artisan class, and their skills were highly prized in both the Netherlands and in England - this influx of new talent helped to spur proto-industrialization, and arguably laid the groundwork for the industrial revolution (along with many other factors, of course).
Some also to Germany for example Prussia 🙃
@@cuttingbored4195 seemed like Belgium was established to connect those Kingdom's all around it, easy access I think Westinghouse dug in and the beer brewing, nothing like a cold one after work goes down the hatch and takes the edge off.
South African Boers also have some Huguenot ancestry. It's why so many White South Africans have French names

Thank you for your post on a underrated war in history, that claimed possible as high as 1/5 of France population wiped out
Si les protestants avait gagnés c'est toute l'histoire de la France qui change, elle aurait sans doute recolonisé la Floride, été allié à l'Angleterre et la Prusse (les anglais et les protestants de l'ouest de la France étaient amis) en gros il n'y aurait pas eu de monarchie absolue, de révolution ou de Napoléon. En gros on aurait eu une France peut être moins forte à l'échelle européenne mais plus forte à l'échelle mondiale.

Very well explained and illustrated. My only complaint would be about treating Navarre as a non-entity, when it was still an independent polity north of the Pyrenees (Bearn, Low Navarre and Soule as vassal), and retained nominal independence through all the reign of Henri of Bourbon (later absorbed into France as a "province" but the schuteon remaining along the French one as memory of that duality.

my mother's side were Huguenots who fled France and arrived in South Africa's Cape in 1688. Though they quickly assimilated into Afrikaner culture and language. When I was young and visited my mother's family in the western Cape in the 70's I vividly remember my grandmother leading me to a cemetery showing the ancestors graves. Virtually all the last names on the gravestones were French. She was a Malan, and the names of Afrikaners that were married into the family included Lagrange, Terreblanche, Laroux, Malherbe and Duval. She told me the Afrikaners of Huguenot ancestry, even though they lost their language still retained pride in their Huguenot ancestry and made an effort to marry other Afrikaners of Huguenot background.

hello there evren and anyone else that sees this comment jesus loves you and repent of your sins so you can inherit God's kingdom
Both of my parents ancestors were French Huguenots. I know that they were seen as the Protestants and original were I'Eglise Reformee. When my fathers side left France they went to Holland and joined up with The Dutch Reformed church. My Mothers side left France and went to England then to Virginia first landing of Huguenots in 1699-1700. But the English made them walk 25 miles up river to occupy a supposedly a deserted Monacan Indian village? Which I believe they forced the Monacans to leave that area. Because the English had already wanted them out of England and they didn't want them in Williamsburg either because they were mostly trade people and Silversmiths and seamstress and trades people. My Father side went too The New Amsterdam (New York area) in 1670's. I'm so proud of my heritage and I carry the Huguenot emblem on my back window of my SUV and I'm a member of The Manakin Huguenots of Va. But thanks for the History here, Avec amour `a tous Huguenots!

I’m late to the party but you’ve got me hooked. This is a totally neglected era of history (at least in America) and you’re knocking em out of the park.
This seems to have less to do with how communion is received and everything to do with a desire for power at every level of society and a succession crisis.
Why not both? Authority was based on religion, a difference in religion meant that you likely don't recognise the legitimacy of the current rulers, and all bets were off. It's the same reason modern states fear "disinformation" so much.

Why did both sides rely so heavily on foreign recruits/mercenaries? I'm pretty sure France had one of the largest populations in Europe. I understand Germany and the Swiss had developed unique types of infantry that became effective and sought after, but couldn't these fighting types be outfitted with French men?
Invicta has made a video "how to raise a medieval army". They touch on theese issues.
Robby, mercenaries dying in a war is costly for the hiring party but those casualties are much easier for the home front to abide.
it was very common back then to use mercenaries
That's the norm for those days, even Moscovy hired Kalmyks and Cossacks for their war against Poland, Tatars and Ottomans dispite their tendency to mass conscript peasant into foot soldiers. Mercenaries from Swiss and HRE were expensive but they're professionals while conscripting French population would took longer time and long term planning, something that the French nobility didn't have patiance for. Sorry for my english, i dont use auto correct since i hate it.

Hey, if you make a series about the history of European Protestantism, don't forget to make an episode about the history of Protestantism in Transylvania and the Freedom of Religion from the 1540's till the Habsburg conquest in 1690. So many Christian churches lived in peace in Transylvania, thanks to the World's first law of the Freedom of Religion from 1568: - Catholics, - Lutherans, - Calvinists, - Unitarians, - Sabbatarians, - Anabaptists (Hutterites), - Orthodoxes.
I'll certainly make a documentary about Transylvania - just for the sake of my princely ancestors! But I'll probably do it within the context of a "History of Hungary"series. Don't ask me when.
@@pikeshotBattles Thanks
Maybe that's because of Ottomans at that time became overlord to most of Hungarians and Transylvania itself? Despite their outragous practices of kidnapping Christian boys for Jannisary but they do tolerate different religions given they payed their taxes well. If all of Hungarian crown land including Transylvania fall to Habsburgs earlier wouldnt that hard to practice such religious tolerance given Habsburgs were staunchly catholic?

Very good, however I have some reserve about the statement you make at 54:01. "Catherine de Medicis, the King and the Guises conspired to finish Coligny." Where did you get that? My understanding is that it is still a hjottely debated issue. And there are many conflicting analyses of the events. To make a parallel look at the investigation of the events on Jan 6... now we are talking about events that happened 6 centuries ago, with no record and within a day. The King look at Coligny as a father, and Catherine just married her daughter to the head of the Huguenots. The whole thing doesn't make much sense.

@@pikeshotBattles One more question. What was the ideology of the two sides?

Was there something like this here too?
@@incursus1401 both sides were commanded by nobles. It wasn't a war of political ideology, though the events of the war caused people to change how they thought about government and society (i.e. questions like "is it ever right to fight against one's own king?"
