Les Huguenots
Les Huguenots is a French word for Protestants, people who chose to follow a different religion than what the government suggested. Like how there are different colors of crayons, people have different beliefs about what is right and wrong.
The Huguenots were a group of French Protestants who lived in France during the 16th and 17th centuries. They were treated unfairly and were not allowed to practice their religion openly. They were often persecuted by the government and the Catholic Church.
Eventually, the Huguenots started to rebel against the government because they were being treated unfairly. This led to a lot of violence between the Huguenots and the Catholics.
In 1572, a terrible event happened that is now called the St. Bartholomew's Day Massacre. This was when thousands of Huguenots were killed by the Catholics just because they believed in a different religion.
Eventually, the Huguenots were allowed to practice their religion openly, but it took a lot of time and fighting. Today, people are allowed to practice any religion that they choose, but we should always respect each other's beliefs and show kindness to those who are different from us.
