Answer 2

Answer: the correct answer is A. A group of Calvinists who experienced religious discrimination in France .

Step-by-step explanation:

The Huguenots were French Protestant of the 16th–17th centuries. Largely Calvinist, the Huguenots suffered severe persecution. The French Calvinists adopted the Huguenot name around 1560, but the first Huguenot church was created five years earlier in a private home in Paris. The origin of the name Huguenot is unknown but believed to have been derived from combining phrases in German and Flemish that described their practice of home worship.
