"La Commune"

"La Commune" refers to the Paris Commune, a revolutionary government that briefly ruled Paris from March to May 1871. It emerged as a response to political and social unrest after France's defeat in the Franco-Prussian War. The Commune aimed to implement radical ideas like workers' control, social equality, and democratic governance. Although it lasted only a few months before being violently suppressed by the national government, it remains a powerful symbol of working-class resistance and the pursuit of social justice, influencing future socialist and revolutionary movements worldwide.
