On August 26, 1648, the people of Paris held an uprising against feudal autocracy
On this day, 377 years ago, on August 26, 1648 (July 8, 1648 in the lunar calendar), the people of Paris held an uprising against feudal autocracy. On August 26, 1648, the people of Paris held an uprising against the feudal autocracy. In the second half of the 17th century, the French feudal autocracy developed to its peak, and the central royal power was unprecedentedly strong. Louis XIV (1643-1715) was only 5 years old when he ascended the throne, and the man in charge was Prime Minister Mazaram (1643-1661). Not long after the prince ascended the throne, a movement against the government took place in Paris. The Court of Paris (Founded in the 13th century under Louis IX, the position of judges is hereditary. The king's edict must be registered in the court before it is announced, and the court has the right to object to the king's edict.) In May 1648, a resolution was passed requiring: (1) all new taxes or other fiscal edict was issued must be reviewed and registered by the court in advance;(2) the abolition of the superintendents sent by the king to the provinces to exercise financial, police and judicial power;(3) the abolition of the collection system of personal taxes, exemption from all unpaid taxes, and punishment of tax collectors, financial officials and bankers who stole the treasury; (4) No person shall be arrested without announcing the count. The arrested person must be brought to the court for trial within 24 hours. To a certain extent, these demands reflect the desire of all sectors of society to oppose feudal autocracy and are supported by the bourgeoisie and the broad masses of the people. When Mazzaram ordered the arrest of two court leaders, the people of Paris staged an uprising on August 26. At this time, the king fled and mobilized troops to surround Paris in December. The court aristocrats and bourgeoisie, who were in the leadership position of the movement, were afraid of both the government's army and the expansion of the uprising while Paris was under siege, so they compromised with the king and abandoned their demands. The uprising people of Paris fought with the royal army for more than three months, but failed.
