The Cabochien revolt was an episode in the Civil war between the Armagnacs and the Burgundians which was in turn a part of the Hundred Years' War. In the spring 1413, John the Fearless, duke of Burgundy managed to raise the people of Paris and to impose a reform called the Cabochien ordinance. However, after several months, Parisians, desiring a return to order supported return of the Armagnacs. On November, 1407 Louis, Duke of Orléans and brother of the mad king Charles VI was murdered by masked assassins in the service of John the Fearless, Duke of Burgundy. Following this event, John acquired considerable popularity among Parisians. He aligned himself with a popular faction of Parisians called Cabochiens after their commander, a butcher named Simon the Cutler who was also called Simon Caboche. This group had its origins among working Parisians who were relatively wealthy but not integrated within the class of nobility. In April, 1413, John encouraged the Cabochiens to revolt in a bid to gain power. Revolutionary mobs sporting distinctive white caps, assaulted Armagnac noblemen and their assets throughout the city.
