The Protestant Reformation (1450-1565) marked a monumental shift in religious beliefs and practices, driven by widespread dissatisfaction with the Catholic Church. Issues such as charges of greed, the sale of indulgences, and the corruption of Renaissance Popes fueled criticism. Key figures like Martin Luther and John Calvin introduced revolutionary ideas about faith and salvation, while advancements in printing technology spread these concepts rapidly. The Reformation led to new religious movements, political upheaval in Europe, and a redefined role for the Church, culminating in significant social changes.
