The Rise of the Society of the Rights of Man

On April 13, 1834, just as Leon was being subdued, armed radicals in Paris built in Man barricades. The government already had 40,000 troops massed in the vicinity of the capital and they just rolled in and cleared the barricades out. In the aftermath of the 1834 insurrection, something like 2,000 people were arrested, and the entire leadership of the radical Republicans was decapitated with a stroke.
