Notes:

• The call for help by England will have a great influence in the future politics of the King against the Huguenots. The fall of La Rochelle mark the end of the political strength of the protestants. Under the reign of Louis the fourteen, their privileges will constantly diminish and in 1685, the king after many oppressive measures will revoke the Edict of Nantes. That will result in a massive emigration of Huguenots all around the world. Many will fled to England and Holland and finally will settled in the British colonies of North America. This emigration will greatly affect the French economy and will play a role in the fact that France will in the future loose many of his colonies including New-France. The conditions leading to the French revolution will be in place.
