Azul Dixon · Answer 1

The Edict of Nantes mainly extended the Huguenots with freedom of conscience. It was the first to extend concessions to Protestants, such as the possibility of working for the state.

Kymani Shaw · Answer 2

The edict also restored Catholicism in all areas where Catholic practice had been interrupted and made any extension of Protestant worship in France legally impossible ... On October 18, 1685, Louis XIV formally revoked the Edict of Nantes and deprived the French Protestants of all religious and civil liberties.
