Chouans in the Helix database

Les Chouans was a group of French Royalist insurgents active during the French Revolution. Their bastion was in the Vendée region of western France. They were horrified by the radical anti-clerical revolutionary direction and raised troops against the new national army. The term could also denote rural, anti-revolutionary, pro-royalist sentiment in general.

In 1793, the French Assassin Arno Dorian infiltrated a house occupied by the Chouans, and discovered intel about them for the Council.

In 1795, Arno helped the French Army lieutenant Joachim Murat in launching an attack on the Royalists by sabotaging the Chouans' artillery.

Later in the Revolution, the Chouans intimidated those people who did not support their movement by burning their vineyards. Arno killed them to end the attacks.
