The Reformation was initiated by figures like Martin Luther in the early 16th century, who challenged the practices and doctrines of the Catholic Church. Luther's posting of the Ninety-Five Theses in 1517 is often regarded as the catalyst for the movement, which sought to address issues such as corruption, indulgences, and the authority of scripture. This led to the establishment of various Protestant denominations and significant changes in religious, political, and cultural landscapes across Europe. The Reformation ultimately reshaped Christianity and had lasting impacts on Western society.
