La Guerre de Vendée 1793 _ Le Génocide que la France Refuse de Reconnaître

What if the French Revolution had committed genocide on its own soil? In 1793, the Vendée rose up in revolt. Peasants, priests, entire families refused conscription and defended their faith. The Republic responded with what General Westermann himself described in a letter to the Committee of Public Safety: "There is no more Vendée. It died beneath our free sword. I crushed children under the hooves of horses, massacred women. I have not a single prisoner to reproach myself for." 200,000 dead. Infernal columns sent to burn every farm, every village, every church. Mass drownings in the Loire. Tanneries of human skin in Angers—documented in the departmental archives. France has never officially recognized the word. Genocide. The debate has raged for two centuries. We present the facts, the sources, the letters. It is up to you to judge. #history #Vendée #1793 #FrenchRevolution #genocide #VendéeWar #FrenchHistory #documentary
