Indulgences.
Essentially, what the Catholic Church decided to do was to convince its subjects that paying it in small fees would reduce the amount of time they would spend in Purgatory (think the place between Heaven and Hell). These fees were called indulgences, and people could pay to have their or their family members' years in Purgatory slightly shaved off. This, of course, allowed it to gain much money, as people's years in Purgatory sometimes numbered in the thousands, if not the <em>MILLIONS</em><em /><em /><em>. </em>
Martin Luther was angered at such a system, finding it deceptive and corrupt. He wrote and posted his Ninety-Five Theses in defence of the Church, but with disdain towards the indulgence system.<u />
Answer:
He was succesful a first, but a failure in the end
Explanation:
During the first years of the Napoleonic Wars, Napoleon was succesful in bringing most of Europe under his control. He lead the French army to sounding victories against several enemies in Italy, in Germany, and in Eastern Europe, although he had many difficulties to conquer Spain.
Napoleon's tide changed when he decided to invade Russia. He had some victories at first, but an extremely cold winter, and the vastness of the country obliged him to retreat. During this retreat, he was often ambushed, and lost most of his army due to these ambushes, or due to the harsh winter.
His escape from Russia was precisely in 1812, and would mark his fate of several subsequent defeats that would utimately lead to his forced exile in the island of St. Helena.
Specifically, the Battle of the Coral Sea prevented the Japanese carriers Shōkaku and Zuikaku from joining in the Battle of Midway one month later.

In his "Great Arsenal of Democracy" speech, delivered on 29 December 1940, in the middle of the World War II, Roosevelt portrays the nations of Nazi Germany and its allies as aggressors and with a very different philosophy of government than American's, which consisted of violently dominating the world. He affirmed that If the Axis won the war, they would take over other continents nearby (Asia, Africa, Europe) and would bring enormous military and naval resources against the U.S. as well.
Consequently, the Axis power represented a threat to American society, and thus America, as the great arsenal of democracy, had a duty to help Britain fight the Axis by giving them military supplies while it stayed out of the actual fighting.
