7 Consequences Luther was threatened excommunication from church if he didn’t take back his statement Luther was cheered as he threw the threat in the fire; thus was excommunicated Stood trial, declared an outlaw, and books burned None of this mattered because is words were already out and even created a separate religion called Lutherans

8 Germany divided Some German princes supported the church and some didn’t (became known as protestant) This bringing Germany into a war End result: Peace of Augsburg: decided each ruler could decide the religion of his state

Henry VII wanted a son and his 42 year wife was done have kids with only one daughter, Mary = wants an annulment; pope refused Had parliament end pope’s power, married Anne Boleyn and basically took power away from the Pope by removing the Church of England from Rome’s authority
