Which religious group was most affected when the Edict of Nantes was revoked?

Answer 1

The religious group most affected by the revocation of the Edict of Nantes in 1685 was the Huguenots, who were French Protestants adhering to Calvinism. The revocation of the edict, which had previously granted them substantial rights and freedoms, led to severe persecution, loss of rights, and many Huguenots choosing to flee France to escape repression, seeking refuge in other countries.
