Gutenberg of Germany in 1439 invented the printing press. It is important because before the press only the king or the church could tell people what they needed to know. In the middle ages about 90% of the people didn't know how to read or write and depended on others to given them information. One reason there are stain glass windows in churches is to tell The Bible stories that people couldn't read for themselves. Reading gives people ways to think new things, to compare ideas, and to created new ideas. It gives people freedom from slavery.
