Pre-Revolutionary France was a theocratic Catholic country. As a result, Calvinism was considered an illegal heresy. After intense fighting, the French government passed the Edict of Nantes, which allowed tolerance of Calvinism, although no state recognition of the religion was granted. Louis XIV revoked the Edict of Nantes as a method of centralizing authority. (Having only one religion, like Catholicism, that is directly affiliated with the state centralizes authority much more-so than having multiple faiths.)
