It didn’t rain for 100 days, wells, ponds and forests dry up, and the cattle died because they could not be fed. The government warned the newspapers not to denominate that catastrophe as a famine. The eventual food deliveries were slow, millions of peasants lost their faith, and the people for the first time rebelled against the government.
