The Reformation is often attributed to Martin Luther, who initiated it in 1517 by posting his Ninety-Five Theses, challenging the practices of the Catholic Church. The movement evolved through various leaders and factions, but it is not defined by a single endpoint. Historians often consider the Peace of Westphalia in 1648, which ended the Thirty Years' War, as a significant conclusion to the religious conflicts stemming from the Reformation. However, the effects of the Reformation continue to influence Christianity and Western society today.
Henry the VIII led it and started it when he broke with the Pope.
it started yesterday and ended today :)
The renaissance started in 1350 and ended in 1550
The Counter-Reformation, which began in the 16th century, was largely initiated by the Catholic Church in response to the Protestant Reformation. Key figures in this movement included Pope Paul III, who convened the Council of Trent in 1545, and Ignatius of Loyola, the founder of the Jesuit order, who played a significant role in revitalizing Catholic education and missionary work. The Counter-Reformation aimed to address issues of corruption within the Church and clarify Catholic doctrine.
The Reformation is generally considered to have ended in the mid-17th century, particularly with the Peace of Westphalia in 1648, which concluded the Thirty Years' War in Europe. This peace treaty recognized the coexistence of Protestantism and Catholicism, marking a significant turning point in the religious landscape of Europe. The Reformation's legacy continued to influence religious and political dynamics, but the major conflicts and upheavals associated with it had largely subsided by this time.
