Answer:

The Calvinist Protestants of France

Step-by-step explanation:

The Edict of Nantes was signed by King Henry IV in 1598, granting French Protestants rights in a Catholic Nation, thus allowing them to own lands and titles. In 1865 Louis XIV revoked the Edict and declared Protestantism illegal, thus starting persecution of protestants in France.
