Event
The Jacquerie Rebellion
Relations between the Nobility and the Commoners have reached a boiling point and now the peasantry has begun to rise in a disorderly manner all across Country. These mobs, armed with scythes and pitchforks, are led by no general, but instead anger. Their goals are simple, they desire only to upend the social order and destroy all living symbols of their repression.
If our great nation is to survive, we must crush this rebellion and set a historical example of what happens to those who step out of their position.

2230historical_info = flavor_fra.1015.historical_info The Jacquerie was a peasant rebellion in 1358, named after "Jacques Bonhomme" (Simple/Honest James), a derogatory term used by the nobility to describe the peasants. The revolt was severe and widespread, being the culmination of extreme exploitation of the peasantry. As such, even unlikely allies like the Kingdom of Navarra showed up to make sure it would not succeed, as it had the potential to break the entrenched feudal system and lead to a decline in royal and noble power.
