World History: March 28-April 1



This week we will discuss the Renaissance & Reformation, which led to many changes throughout Europe & the globe. What led to these 2 major events? We will discuss the causes & effects of each this week! The Renaissance was a rebirth for culture & learning after the Dark Ages in Europe. The Reformation began with challenges to the superiority of the Catholic Church, which held massive amounts of power in the medieval world. Emphasis will be placed on Martin Luther (LEFT) & King Henry VIII of England (RIGHT). These two men would be responsible for the creation of new sects of the Christian religion that would compete with Catholicism.




*REMINDER- Conferences are Tuesday-Thursday this week!
