Answer:
The
Scholars Revolt in 1868 was led by officials at the imperial court angered by
the spread of Catholicism and French power. Catholic missionaries had been active
in winning converts since the early 17th century and by the middle of the 18th
century had converted some 3,00,000 people.

a thousand Catholics were killed.
The French successfully crushed the movement, but the
revolt was significant for it served as inspiration for other patriots to rise
up against the colonial power.
