Best Answer

The term "Protestant Reformation" refers specifically to the period in 16th century Europe where Martin Luther and other figures in the Church declared "independence" from the Catholic Church on account of perceived or actual grievances against them. This resulted in the formation of numerous Protestant churches such as the Lutheran, Calvinist, Anabaptist, and Anglican churches.
