The Reformation

The discovery of America in 1492 and the rupture of Western Christendom in 1517 marked the departure from the Middle Age and the arrival of the world we know today. The rebellion of a mysterious, German friar triggered one of the most important events in European history. One that led to the reconfiguration of the continental map and broke the essential unity of all the West around one church and an imperial idea. Nothing would be the same again after Luther.
