It probably was referring to the struggles between Roman Catholics and Huguenots (French Calvinists), who were fighting for equality in French society and freedom from persecution. It ultimately lead to many of them leaving France for other lands until the persecution ended with the French Revolution. Wikipedia has information on the conflicts at this link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_Wars_of_Religion

Hi Megan. I bet it refers to the persecution of the Hugenots, the Protestant French at the time of Calvin. However, it might be the 13th century persecution of the Cathars in southern France. I fall asleep all the time. It is so annoying!
