- In 1793 the people of Lyon, who favoured a constitutional monarchy or a federative republic, rose against the dictaturship of the Jacobins and the economical crisis. A battle occured on 7th an 8th october, after which Lyon suffered terrible and bloody represals, even losing her name to become "Freed Town".

I have a question wich you might be able to answer: is the map in the video a map of Lyon?
Fun fact : It isn't about monarchists, but about federalists (also called girondins), who were another kind of republicans, who were opposed to the montagnards (a jacobin club/party who ruled France during the terror), the federalists were opposed to centralism and the Terror, they wanted France to become a federal republic where départements (french equivalent of english counties/japanese prefectures/spanish or italian provinces) would have autonomy.
Tout ce que vous dites est vrai, mais les insurgés de Lyon étaient commandés par des officiers royalistes car les Girondins avaient été arrêtés et exécutés ou s'étaient enfuis.
If that happened then cultures and languages of regions in France would have been preserved.
So basically they wanted to be america

My favourite one is the one with Onions: Chanson de L'oignon
Indeed.
what makes our patriotic songs powerful is actually the use of the choir and deep voices. The slow music give them a lot of weight, which hits the listener like a tons of bricks. The brits are more into light and joyful songs, and the germans are more into marches or steady voices. This is what makes our songs so strong (apart the text, of course)

While most in the main cities like Paris were all for the revolution many in the countryside and more moderate cities such as Lyon had no problem making the king a figurehead but with so much power from terror and the army these people could only fight for so long.
Actually most of the Revolution happened in Paris, and then revolts happened in the countryside but not other big cities in August 1789 due to rumours of a royalist conspiracy against small villages (yes that's specific) hence the people started murdering their local barons.

@@klorydricacide304 par dérivation de sens uniquement.
Le verbe "Foutre" signifie originellement "baiser/sodomiser" (cf "dom bougre" un chef d'œuvre de la littérature française du XVIII, vraiment). Par suite, le substantif masculin "foutre" a pris le sens de "sperme".
Le verbe "branler" a subit la même évolution.

@@thegateguardian1201 thank you for the correction. You’re right, the Fueliants did have A sizable amount of influence in Lyon. Nevertheless I wouldn’t consider these groups counterrevolutionary that was more of a stick name to demonize them by the radical factions to the people and group them with the Royalists that were Seeking a return to deit privileges or taking it to the extreme and reverting back to Neo-feudalism. Most of the Fueliants originally had connections and ideological similarities with The patriotic society of 1789 Who were self-described revolutionaries (and also monarchists). They would most likely have called themselves revolutionaries actually. This was the point I was trying to get crossed.

AVANT AVANT LIYON LE MELHOR
The historical context is false. They rebels of Lyon were NOT against revolution or in favour of any kind of monarchy. During the French revolution the revolutionaries were divided between the "Girondins" and the "Montagnards". The Montagnards won and massacred most of the Girondins. The revolutionaries were bloody despotic dictators like Robespierre. The peopel of Lyon rebelled against " la convention" which was the regime set in place by the montagnards. They paid with their life.
The girondins made a circumstantial alliance with monarchists because they had a common enemy: "La montagne" but they were not fighting to restore monarchy. Their political line was a lot more about FEDERALISM. They wanted interdependent regions allied in a federation. Actually they wanted to be like the USA or like Germany: A federation.
Many people descibe them as royalists because history is written by the winners, and centralist have won the battle in France, making the place the most successful communist country in the world and the least successful capitalist place in the same time. I cry when I listen to this song because this is one hell of a sorry event. In Lyon in 1793, liberty was massacred and dictatorship celebrated. Yet these guys fought till the death and that's the French spirit.
Wouldn't be bad at all if they were monarchists either.
@@AdmiraHax It's not a question of bad or good. It's a question of accuracy. PLus, depicting somebody as a monarchist in France is a bit like calling him a nazi.

De l'ultra lourd !!!
I didn't know that another region/city were have rebelled against the Jacobins, thank you ingen
A lot of provinces actually revolted. Vendéens and Chouans in Vendée and Brittany made a monarchist uprising that went very brutal (the Vendéens say today that it was a genocide but I strongly disagree).
The whole south of France was in trouble and there were federalist uprisings in all major cities : Lyon, Bordeaux, Toulouse, Marseille, as well as revolts in Normandy, Burgundy and Provence.
This is the beginning of a period called "la Terreur". Every city that rebelled was devasted and in cities that were still loyal, the guillotine was massively used to kill everyone that was suspected to be a counter-revolutionnary.
This massacre continued for one year from summer 1793 to the 28th of July 1794 with the death of Robespierre
@@FoxTrotteur very interesting and fascinating, thank you
In 1793, 80 french departements (for approximately 100), were in opposition against the Convention regime. The most famous uprisings are Vendée, Britanny, Lyon, Marseille, but also Normandy and Basque country etc.
In fact all the French revolutions (not in 1789, but in 1792 with the end of the monarchy, 1830, 1848 and 1871) have been made by parisians people, mostly against the rest of the country wich always been more conservative.
@@louisixlefourbe8075 en 89 aussi c'est une milice bourgeoise qui prend le contrôle
@@pierren___ Mais en 89 on promettait la fin des impôts directs et des droits féodaux, en 93 la conscription. Ce qui fait que paradoxalement la révolution plus élitiste faisait plus consensus. On ne voulait de la victoire coalisée ni dans un cas ni dans l'autre toutefois.
C'est étonnant le nombre de référence aux cultes gréco-latin dans la chanson, sans doute en référence a l'époque où Lyon était capitale des Gaulles.
Et c'est tout aussi étonnant de voir des royalistes chanté les louanges de mourrir pour la liberté et la patrie, quand la monarchie absolue demandais a ses soldats de mourrir pour le roi.
Enfin, même pour un partisan Jacobins comme moi, la chanson est très belle et viens du cœur de ceux qui l'ont composé et chanté. Alors ça mérite notre respect.
Ce ne sont pas des royalistes, mais des républicains, considérés comme trop modérés par le comité de salut public de Paris. C’est une lutte intestine entre différent courants révolutionnaires, qui a éclaté en une lutte sanglante puis en répression (épisode du mitraillage de Lyon par Fouché)
@@avabruck5817 J'avais vue ça oui, Lyon a subis une grande répression de la part de la convention nationale pour écraser les soutiens des Girondins considérer comme traître. En effet la ville s'était révolté après qu'à Paris, de nombreux girondins ai été arrêté.
Mais de ce que j'ai vue même si Lyon en elle même était visiblement partisans des girondins dans un grande proportion, les auteurs du chant en lui même serais d'inclinaison royaliste. Enfin c'est surtout un groupe hétéroclite de gens uni contre leur ennemis commun qu'est la révolution, donc rien d'étonnant de trouver de tout dedant.
On y perçoit tout de même l'influence certaine d'autres chants révolutionnaires comme La Marseillaise. Ainsi le passage : "Gauthier, scélérat perfide (...) Et toi, Crancé, parricide ! L'horreur de tous les français. Ambitieux et sanguinaires, les lyonnais sont tous prêts (...) mais punirons vos forfaits. " présente des similitudes avec cette strophe de La Marseillaise : Tremblez, tyrans, et vous, perfides,
L'opprobre de tous les partis,
Tremblez ! vos projets parricides
Vont enfin recevoir leurs prix !
Tout est soldat pour vous combattre,
S'ils tombent, nos jeunes héros,
La terre en produit de nouveaux,
Contre vous tout prêts à se battre !
