In March 1793, the Vendée region ignites in rebellion against the French Republic's compulsory military draft, signifying a stark defiance to a regime that mirrored monarchical oppression. This revolt, which begins as a localized resistance in rural France, quickly escalates into a formidable insurrection. Provoked by the National Convention's decree to mobilize 300,000 men via a lottery system, the Vendéens' fierce opposition was uniquely prolonged and intense compared to other regions. The conflict intensifies when insurgents, predominantly from the Cholet area, forcefully express their discontent, leading to significant bloodshed, including the storming of Cholet and the massacre at Machecoul. Under the leadership of figures like Jacques Cathelineau and Jean-Nicolas Stofflet, the rebellion swiftly gains ground, capturing key locations such as Saint-Florent-le-Vieil.
The Republic's response, dispatching over 45,000 troops, showcases the gravity of the uprising. Early confrontations, including a pivotal clash near Chantonnay and another defeat near Chalonnes-sur-Loire, highlight the formidable challenge the rebels posed to Republican forces.
