The Edict of Nantes signed by Henry IV of France in 1598 granted religious freedom to the Huguenots in France. It provided them with certain rights and privileges and allowed them to practice their religion and live in certain areas of the country. The Edict of Nantes was revoked by Louis XIV in 1685 ending the religious toleration of the Huguenots. This revocation caused a wave of religious persecution as the Huguenots were no longer allowed to practice their religion. Many Huguenots chose to leave France migrating to other countries in Europe North America and even South Africa.The revocation of the Edict of Nantes was officially declared on October 22nd 1685 by Louis XIV. The document was titled a "Declaration of the King concerning the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes". It declared that all Huguenots must convert to Catholicism or leave France. It also stated that all Protestant churches were to be closed and that Huguenots were no longer allowed to practice their religion in public or in private.The consequences of the revocation of the Edict of Nantes were severe. The Huguenot population in France dwindled significantly as many chose to flee the country in order to practice their religion freely. Many of those who remained were persecuted for their beliefs and were subject to harsh punishments if caught practicing their religion. The revocation of the Edict of Nantes marked the end of religious toleration in France and had a lasting impact on the country.

The Edict of Nantes allowed for Protestants to live in France with many of the same rights as Catholics had (as opposed to being persecuted as they were before). This was positive step for religious tolerance, but was far from full equality and said nothing about other religions such as Judaism, Islam, or Orthodox Christianity.
