The Cathars were a Christian dualist sect that emerged in the 12th century in southern France, particularly in the Languedoc region. They believed in a radical interpretation of Christianity that emphasized a spiritual, rather than material, existence, and rejected the authority of the Roman Catholic Church. The Cathars viewed the material world as the creation of an evil force, advocating for a life of asceticism and purity. Their beliefs led to widespread persecution, culminating in the Albigensian Crusade initiated by the Catholic Church in the early 13th century, which aimed to eradicate Catharism.
