What were the causes and results of Frances wars on religion?
The French Wars of religion are a nasty bunch. During the late sixteenth century (the period of the War of the Three Henry's), there was an upsurge of Protestantism in France, a notoriously Catholic country. Now, faith at this time was very important, and Catholicism and Protestantism have only been reconciled as recently as the Second Vatican Council. Anyway, three Henry's arose, Henry of Navarre, Henry, Duke of Guise, and King Henry III. They fought, and Henry of Navarre, a Protestant, won the conflict. However, the wars would end with the Edict of Nantes (1589) (?), where religious toleration was granted in France. I would give more, but this should be sufficient enough.
What happened to end the french wars of religion?
Henry of Navarre (soon to be Henry IV) won out against the Catholic League (which was not unified) and converted to Catholicism in order to be accepted by the people of Paris. The war had been going on for so long that it is possible to attribute the end of the fighting to general war fatigue (see the revolt of the Tards Avises).
