A Huguenot is a member of a French Protestant group descended from 16th and 17th century Protestant Reformed Church of France. Historically they were inspired by the writings of John Calvin (Jean Calvin in French) in the 1530s, who became known by that originally derisive designation by the end of the 16th century.
Huguenot numbers peaked near an estimated two million by 1562, concentrated mainly in the southern and central parts of France. As they gained influence and more openly displayed their faith, Roman Catholic hostility grew despite increasingly liberal political concessions and edicts of toleration from the French crown, most notably the Edict of Nantes.
A series of religious persecutions followed, culminating in the Edict of Fontainebleau revoking the Edict of Nantes and pressuring Huguenots to convert. While nearly three-quarters eventually submitted, roughly 500,000 Huguenots fled France by the late 17th and early 18th centuries. - From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
