A French TV show about a French genocide.
Revolutionary deputies of the National Convention voted the extermination of the people of la Vende (former Lower Poitou) on October 1st, 1793.
The National Convention to the Army of the West
"Soldiers of liberty, the brigands of La Vende must be exterminated before the end of October. The welfare of the country requires this: the impatience of the French people commands it; their courage ought to accomplish it. The national gratitude awaits at that period all those whose valour and patriotism shall have irrevocably established liberty and the republic!"
The French Republic still denies it nowadays.
