==The Paris Commune==
After losing to the Prussians in the Franco-Prussian War, France established the Third French Republic as the successor to the Second French Empire but most of the politicians were pro-monarchy and Paris' National Guards were not keen to follow the new republic's command. Establishing independence, the Commune established progressive laws to better the citizens' lives with merciful punishments, economical benefits, and greater educational for the children. However, their progress came to a halt when the French Army surrounded Paris. With the French Brotherhood aiding the rebels, the British Assassin Pierrette Arnaud helped guard and fend off the soldiers of the French Army.Assassin's Creed: The Engine of History – The Resurrection Plot — Chapter 20
