1 mai 1358 - Peasant Revolts: Jacquerie (The French Revolt) 1358
Description:
Long before the French Revolution, European peasants vented their anger against their noble masters. Lacking armaments and supplies, they usually lost.Armed with only knives and staves, the peasantry went on a rampage, killed hated nobles and clergy, and burning and looting all the property they could get their hands on. At issue was the peasants' insistence that they should no longer be tied to their land or have to pay for the tools they used in farming.
