Allow me to add some detail about what the "Counter-Reformation" was. The Catholic Reformation or Counter-Reformation was an effort by the Roman Catholic Church in the 16th century, intended to strengthen itself in response to the Protestant Reformation. The Counter-Reformation included a number of features, such as:
- The formation of religious orders that aimed to build allegiance to Rome and the papacy, and to educate people in Catholic teaching. The Society of Jesus, known as the Jesuits for short, was a key order of this sort. The order was founded by Ignatius of Loyola in 1534, along with Francis Xavier and several others.
- The Council of Trent served to reform some abuses that were acknowledged by the Catholic Church, but mostly to assert the full authority of Roman power and doctrine over the Protestant threat. The Council of Trent held meetings over a span of years from 1545 to 1563.
- The Roman Inquisition was founded in 1542 to act as an investigative body in regard to threats to Rome's teachings. About a century later, Galileo would be one of the most famous persons tried by the Roman Inquisition.
<span>I see similarities in many things that the United States used to have issues with. Many people fought for African American and Women’s rights but now it is becoming an issue again. Yes, things are much better than they were in the past, but women still are being segregated in ways that men aren’t. Segregation in many ways is still an issue in the united states, and most likely always will be because of how the past was. Something that is a similarity that is very apparent is the fact that immigration is very much still a huge part of our nation and our economic growth. Another similarity is the structure of the government. This is something that has been in place for a very long time and with only small changes has worked for us for a long time.</span>
