The main outcome of the Dreyfus Affair in France was a profound national scandal that exposed deep-seated anti-Semitism and divisions within French society. Alfred Dreyfus, a Jewish army officer falsely accused of treason in 1894, became the focal point of a controversial trial marked by political intrigue and media sensationalism. The case sparked widespread public debate and eventually led to a reexamination of justice and civil rights in France. It galvanized both Dreyfusards, who supported Dreyfus, and anti-Dreyfusards, who opposed him, resulting in significant political ramifications and contributing to the rise of the Zionist movement.
