Charles V opposed the Reformation because he saw it as a threat to the unity and stability of the Holy Roman Empire, which he ruled. He was also a devout Catholic and believed in upholding the authority of the Catholic Church. Additionally, Charles V's political power was closely tied to the support of the Catholic Church and the papacy.
