What major historical event inspried victor hugo in witing the novel

This question seems to be incomplete. However, there is enough information to find the right answer.

June Rebellion

Explanation:

The major historical event that inspired Victor Hugo to write Les Misérables was the June Rebellion of 1832, also known as the Paris Uprising of 1832.

The rebellion led by Enroljas and the students known as the “Friends of the ABC” is similar to the real story of the french revolutionaries that led a two-day uprising in Paris and were then defeated by the armed forces.

Another real-life inspiration for the book was Eugene Francois Vidocq, who similarly to Jean Valjean, was a reformed ex-convict who later became the first director of the French Sureté Nationale crime agency.

But it was Victor Hugo´s first-hand experience as a witness of the historical revolt that inspired the setting of the story.
