フォンテーヌブローの勅令
In 1685, Louis XIV of France had revoked the Edict of Nantes, referred to as the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes or the Edict of Fontainebleau. This caused mass exodus of Protestants. There were those who stayed and continued to secretly practice Protestantism, called "The Church of the Desert", or "Christians of the Desert". His followers were always hounded, persecuted, and put to death.
