On April 5, 1795, France and Prussia signed the Peace of Basel
On this day, 230 years ago, on April 5, 1795 (February 16, 1795, the lunar calendar), France and Prussia signed the Peace of Basel. On April 5, 1795, Prussia signed the Peace of Basel with France, and was the first to withdraw from the allied forces. This was a major victory for the French bourgeois government in the 18th century to crush the feudal anti-French alliance in Europe. The bourgeois revolution that broke out in France in the 18th century alarmed feudal lords in European countries. First, Austria and Prussia signed an anti-French military alliance in 1792. Brunswick, commander of the Prussian coalition forces, issued a declaration saying: "The purpose of the Allied forces 'operations is to end attacks on the royal family and the church and restore the power of the royal family. If there is any defiance, the Allied forces will completely destroy Paris." In the spring of 1793, when news of the execution of King Louis XVI reached European countries, the ruling groups of European countries were very shocked. On February 1, Britain participated in the war against France and formed the first anti-France alliance. In addition to Prussia and Austria, Spain, the Netherlands, Sardinia, Naples, Russia and several small German countries participated in the alliance. Under the leadership of the National Convention headed by Robespierre, the French people rose up against the war. In August 1793, the National Convention issued a conscription order of 500,000 yuan, requiring all young people aged 18 to 25 to join the army. Those with family members engage in weapons manufacturing and transportation work; women sew military uniforms and perform medical work, practicing self-defeating warfare. Because the war received support from the masses, defeat quickly turned into victory. By the end of 1793, the enemy on French borders was basically eliminated. The bourgeois revolutionary regime overcame the difficulties and was consolidated. Through a series of conspiracy activities, the emerging big bourgeoisie promoted the Therri coup d'état, defeated the Jacobins led by Robespierre, and won all the fruits of victory. Prussia signed a peace treaty with the French Garez regime, recognizing the left bank of the Rhine River as belonging to France. From then on, the anti-French alliance disintegrated.
