  • Paris erupts Number 1

    What riots have occured in Paris since, oh, say 1814?

    Im thinking 1830, the fall of the Bourbons.
    1848 the fall of the Orleanists, and then again, the commune.
    the 1870 commune.
    Laics and Catholics in 1904 or thereabouts? Or was that not in Paris?
    Anti-dreyfusards. Did the pro-dreyfusards also riot?
    fascist types in the 1930s.
    1944 - more of a battle than a riot though, right?
    1968 of course.

    Was their rioting associated with the algeria unpleasantness?

    Stuff associated with attempted coups in the 1870s?

    anything else im missing?

    Suppose they had this huge bar-fight in the village of Clichy-sous-Bois anno 1853. Should that technically be considered a Parisian riot?

        I was thinking more ones of political importance, but if you know an interestnng 1853 barfight, tell us about it.
