feb 2, 1648 - The Fronde
Description:
The Frondes themselves were a series of civil wars, but their ideology of trying to overthrow the crown is more impactful than their events. The Fronde ideology was a constant threat throughout Louis XIV’s reign.
They were more influential than outside threats of invasion to France that Richelieu feared bc they so strongly shaped Louis and his philosophies
