The Diet of Speyer was a series of meetings held in the Holy Roman Empire, particularly significant in the 16th century. It involved discussions among princes and representatives regarding governance, religion, and policies, reflecting the tensions of the Reformation period. The term "diet" refers to a formal deliberative assembly, where various states and territories would negotiate and make decisions on important issues. The outcomes of these diets often shaped the political landscape of Germany and influenced the relationship between Protestant and Catholic territories.
In 1529, the Protestant Reformation saw significant developments, including the Diet of Speyer where the German princes protested against the Catholic Church's attempts to suppress the spread of Protestantism. This led to the formulation of the Protestation at Speyer, a document that asserted the right of individual states within the Holy Roman Empire to determine their own religious practices. Additionally, the Marburg Colloquy took place in 1529, a meeting between Martin Luther and Swiss reformer Ulrich Zwingli to discuss their theological differences and attempt to find common ground.
Speyer ended in 1792.
The word Protestant is derived from the Latin protestari, meaning publicly declare, which refers to the letter of protestation by Lutheran princes against the decision of the Diet of Speyer in 1529, which reaffirmed the edict of the Diet of Worms in 1521, banning Luther's documents. Since that time, the term Protestantism or Protestant has been used in many different senses, often as a general term merely to signify that they are not Roman Catholics.
