Huguenots would find a welcome and prosperous trade network along the lengths of the Rhone river.

The term Huguenots is the old name given to French Protestants of Calvinist doctrine during the wars of religion in France.

Its origin goes back to 1512 but it was not until 1534 when the French Protestants would join the doctrine of John Calvin, that is, Calvinism. The religious was forced to leave France in 1534, but settled in Geneva, where he developed his work "The Institution of the Christian Religion." From his exile, he organized the reformed Churches of France, criticized the Catholic Church for its methods and promoted the Protestant belief that "heaven had to be earned on earth."

The French powers were not at all supporters of the Huguenots and their "Reformed Church." They saw them as a scourge and described them as "pretended reformed religion." In 1559, at the Synod of Paris, the French Huguenots presented a Calvinist doctrinal statement to Francis II, newly proclaimed King of France. However, the aristocracy belonging to the House of Guise provoked a harsh repression against the declarants. Between 1562 and 1594, all those related to the Huguenots (relatives, etc.) were persecuted and exterminated, blaming them for heresy.

The arrival to the throne of Henry IV changed the luck for the Huguenots. The king, of Calvinist belief, was forced to embrace Catholicism in order to be recognized as king of France. But this did not prevent him from sympathizing with the Protestant collective and granting them positions of power within the government and society. On April 13, 1598, he signed the Edict of Nantes, which put an end to the Wars of Religion and guaranteed a certain freedom of worship.

However, on October 18, 1685, Louis XIV decided to unanimously revoke the Edict of Nantes and continue the extermination of French evangelicals. Seeing the hostile panorama, most of the Huguenots fled to the Netherlands, Switzerland, England and Prussia, as well as to the British colonies.

Finally, thanks to Napoleon, they regained all their rights in 1802.

<em>Huguenots would find a welcome and prosperous trade network along the lengths of </em><em>the Rodano river.</em><em>  </em>


The Huguenots were groups of Calvinist Protestants who lived in the area currently shared by France and Switzerland on the banks of the Rhone River, which was the main commercial route between southern and northern Europe. Both trade and ideas flowed rapidly in the reformist era.



In times of the Roman Empire, important civil works were made such as ports, canalizations, bridges, connections between different rivers, etc., to enhance the commercial deployment between the countries of the Mediterranean coasts, the Central European regions such as Switzerland, and those of northern Europe as Germany, the Netherlands and even England crossing the channel of the spot.

The Huguenots were persecuted in France by the State and the Catholic Church and many of them (some 200,000) emigrated to other European countries such as the Netherlands, England and Germany. They also emigrated to the British colonies of the United States as active promoters of American emancipation and pioneers in deploying liberal ideas in the United States. They founded some ephemeral colonies in Florida, but did not participate in the colonization of the Mississippi River because these territories were dominated by the official French power from which they had fled.

Why did Ashoka the Great turn to the teachings of the Buddha?
Svetllana [295]

Ashoka turned to the teachings of the Buddha because he felt that the life he was living wasn't right. He thought that there had to be some sort of divine power and/or eternal balance and harmony with nature. That was when he adopted the ideas of Buddhism, and practiced them. This consolidated his power by making him more respected.
