  4. What Happened?- Germany • Peasants were beginning to feel miserable with countless high taxes they had to pay for, and the lack of power they had • Around the same time, reformation preachers were bringing back the idea of freedom again • In about 1524, thousands of the German peasants invaded the castles and monasteries • Arebellion started which became known as the Peasants’ War, and the nobles harshly suppressed the uprising • Martin Luther was accused of causing the chaos, but he denounced it • His refusal to side with the peasants helped prevent the reformation from turning into a social revolution that encouraged social equality • Holy Roman Emperor Charles V, a dedicated Catholic, was determined to turn back the tide of Protestantism. • In 1546 Charles V began a war against the Lutheran princes in Germany • After years of battles, the war started to die down , and the Peace of Augsburg was signed in 1555. Charles, who despised religious compromise, did not go to the meeting. • The agreement in Augsburg allowed each prince to choose the religion that his people would follow.
