Riforma e controriforma
Summary
TLDRIn the early 16th century, the Catholic Church faced criticism for its spiritual decline, leading to Martin Luther's 95 Theses in 1517, which protested against the Church's sale of indulgences. This act sparked the Protestant Reformation, with figures like Luther and John Calvin advocating for religious reform. Meanwhile, King Henry VIII established the Anglican Church in England to counteract the Church's influence. The Catholic Church responded with the Counter-Reformation, including the Council of Trent and the founding of the Jesuit Order. The religious conflicts culminated in the St. Bartholomew's Day Massacre in 1572, and the violence across Europe only subsided with the Edict of Nantes in 1598, reflecting a divided Europe between Protestantism and Catholicism.
