Protestant+Reformation

The Protestant Reformation was a reform movement in Europe that began in 1517. It began with reforms made by Martin Luther and ended with the Battle of Westphalia. The movement began as an attempt to reform the Catholic Church. Many Catholics were troubled by what they thought were false doctrines and they were particularly worried about the about the teachings and sellings of indulgences. One event that occured during the Reformation was the knailing of the 95 theses on the Catholic Church door by Martin Luther, showing all the different changes they wanted for the church.
