![Why was French monarchy defied by the Fronde ? [Historical Issues #06]](/img/logo.svg){kind=logo}
In its modern definition, the "fronde" means the revolt of a parliamentary group against the government in power (so a "revolt"). But above all, the Fronde corresponds to a time of serious troubles in France between 1648 and 1653. This power crisis may have changed History radically. But why was French monarcy so seriously attacked in mid-17th century ? What was the wills of the rebels ? And why did the Fronde end in failure ?
