His success in the Protestant Reformation inspired the Catholic Reformation within the Church. The Council of Trent and the Society of Jesus were formed to address problems and modernize the Roman Catholic Church. There are several reasons earlier Reformations were not able to have the same impact as Luther did. Most earlier message's were not able to survive and be heard because there was no way to efficiently
Do you agree with the view that, in the years 1534-40, Protestantism made only limited gains in England? At face value source 7 appears to show that Protestantism made only gains in England between the years of 1534-40, however, when we take into account the fact that it mentions Tyndale and how his translation of the Bible was “unacceptable” due to its “protestant interpretation”. We can see that Protestantism was not fully accepted, and people still felt more comfortable with having a Catholic interpretation. This is rather contradicting, seeing as not even 4 months after Tyndale was executed due to heresy because of his protestant translations, there was an act of treason passed. This act of treason meant that anyone who disagreed with the break with Rome would be executed due to heresy.
The Articles of Confederation – DBQ The Articles of Confederation failed to provide proper leadership and government to the United States economically, politically, and socially. The Confederation’s lack of control over their states led to disarray and confusion among trade and taxes. There was also an issue convincing state officials to participate in the government as well as settling disputes between the states and even other countries. The Articles of Confederation had problems getting a hold on their economic situation. The nation was quite poor from the Revolution and had loans from the French that it was unable to pay back.
From 1781 to 1789, the Articles of Confederation did not provide the United States with an effective government. The purpose of the Articles of Confederation was to try to limit the power of the central government and eliminate the chance that the federal government could become too strong. However, the Articles of Confederation created a national government that could not effectively run the government largely due to lack of power given to Congress to regulate trade, levy taxes and ineffectiveness of foreign policy. The Articles of Confederation did not give Congress power to effectively regulate trade. The statistics on the chart included show the United States population increased from 1784 to 1789, but the market value of exports to Great Britain did not increase in comparison to this population growth (Doc B).
Approximately ten years after World War II, America took the lead in rehabilitating Europe, restoring, Japan, and facing down Communist expansion (Greece, Turkey, Berlin, and Korea). This was not the case in Indochina (area of South East Asia), because the American relationship was beginning to fray. Americans began to questions their values and why they were being applied in Vietnam. This led to a gap in the American’s beliefs of their national experience and the geopolitics of containing communism. America took actions that did not coincide with its original intent.
America was forced to extend credit to ever extended nations in order to keep trade alive. Prohibition to prohibit the sale of alcohol, intended to stabilize society but created conflicts of crime and corruption. In the meantime, the government did nothing to stabilize the unevenness of prosperity among Americans. Middle and upper class enjoyed the highest forms of living, while the lower class
He wanted to reform the church, but created a new denomination instead. As Protestantism spread throughout Europe, so did new ideas about government, economics, and art. One Leader of the Protestant Reformation is often overlooked. Henry VIII split away from the
It discusses the Christian history of England, also its political history, from the time of Caesar’s invasion to the year it was completed. It also talks about king's and bishops, monks and nuns who helped to develop Anglo-Saxon government and religion during the crucial years of the English people. These three works are similar in some sense and different in others. I think that Vico's, The New Science and Machiavelli's, The Prince or more similar to each than that of Bede's work. Both Vico and Machiavelli talk about stages in which a person goes through, but they talk about two completely different stages.
Woodrow Wilson leaves the treaty with mixed feelings. The League of Nations is assembled, however Wilson can’t gain favour in congress and the USA doesn’t join. National self-determination was in Wilson’s mind achieved as the borders in Eastern Europe changed to represent nationalities governing themselves. Some of Wilson’s 14 points didn’t make it into the treaty; secret treaties were
Age of Explorations The Age of Exploration/European expansion was not fueled solely by economic considerations, however, religion played a major role in motivating the European exploration in the early modern era, from the conflicts between Islam and Christianity. We cannot base this expansion on whether it was immoral or moral because of the conflicts within the two religions. The reason that caused the movement/explorations of the Christians was how Christianity failed to complete their "crusade", which was actually a more of gaining more land than a crusade to help the Byzantine empire from the Turks. The Europeans failed in the crusades, trade must go through the Middle East and India instead of being controlled by the Europeans/Christianity, which made the Europeans become desperate and were need for more land and control. The Europeans started to expand to search for more land through the naval academy.
