The religious group that was most affected when the Edict of Nantes was revoked was Protestants living in France. The Edict of Nantes, issued in 1598, had granted significant rights to Huguenots (French Protestants) and allowed them to freely practice their religion. However, its revocation in 1685 by Louis XIV led to persecution, loss of rights, and many Protestants fleeing France.
