The First Chamber of Deputies

At least 300 lynchings were reported, as were multiple grisly assassinations of prominent officials. The election for the first chamber of deputies was finally held in august of 18 15. In a kingdom of 30 million people, only about 75 thousand men were eligible to vote and they voted uniformly hard line royalist. Anyone with more moderate or liberal meanings was either too demoralized to parti ate or too disfranchised to even be allowed a vote.
