1898
1898 in France
In that year, France was in its Third Republic. Émile Zola published “J’accuse...!” in the newspaper L’Aurore. The Dreyfus Affair and Zola’s trial made headlines all year long.
The same year saw the foundation of the General Electric Company (CGE) and the French League for Human Rights (LDH). In Paris, crowds thronged to visit the first Motor Show, held in the Tuileries Gardens. Louis Renault and Edward Richet created the Renault Type A, work began on Paris Métro Line 1, and the Curies announced the discovery of radium.
