==Billeting phase==

During the Billeting Phase of the Dragonnades, spanning the years [[1568]] to [[1573]], the [[Holy Levantine Empire]] implemented a policy of intimidation and coercion as a means to compel Protestants to convert to Catholicism. This initial phase of the Dragonnades was characterized by the quartering of soldiers, most notably swarthy and undisciplined dragoons, in the homes of suspected non-compliant individuals and families. The strategic deployment of dragoons within Protestant households served as a visible demonstration of the [[Holy League]]'s authority and power in their own lands and those they conquered from the [[Protestant Union]]. The presence of the soldiers in the Protestant's homes created an environment of constant scrutiny and psychological pressure, as individuals and families were subjected to relentless surveillance, harassment, and threats in an effort to force their conversion to Catholicism. The enforced presence of the dragoons was accompanied by various forms of coercion, including verbal intimidation, psychological manipulation, and the imposition of punitive measures for non-compliance with Catholic religious practices.
