What was one major similarity between the protestant Reformation and the Catholic Reformation?

History

Correct answer:  C. Both addressed concerns with the practices of the Catholic Church.

Explanation:  

Both the Protestant Reformation and Catholic Reformation  aimed at correcting things seen as abuses or problems in the church. However, what each side considered problems or abuses, and how they addressed those things, weren't the same.

Let's look at two examples.

Indulgences

  • The Catholic Reformation addressed the issue of indulgences at the Council of Trent (1545 to 1563).  Indulgences were documents authorized by the pope that granted remission of penance owed for sins committed.  The Council of Trent upheld the underlying principle of indulgences  -- that the church had authority to grant reprieve to penance or time in purgatory. But the sale of indulgences was stopped.  The church recognized that the selling of indulgences had been an abuse and determined to end that practice.
  • The Protestant Reformation had begun with Martin Luther's objection to the selling of indulgences, with his 95 Theses posted in 1517.  The Protestant side questioned the entire practice of indulgences and the doctrines of penance and purgatory that stood behind them.  The Protestants rejected all those things and eliminated them from their church teaching and practice.

Clergy education

  • Both sides recognized clergy education as a problem that needed to be addressed, and both sides produced catechisms to provide consistency to their education of clergy.  However, the content of that education was entirely different.  The Roman Catechism (published 1566) stressed adherence to traditional Catholic doctrines.  Martin Luther's Small Catechism and Large Catechism (1529)  emphasized salvation as a gift of God's grace, rather than something earned by human efforts.  [The Roman Catholic Church spoke of God's grace also, but as an enabling power that helped human beings do the works required for obtaining salvation.]

Option C i.e, Both addressed concerns with the practices of the Catholic Church is the correct answer.

We see Protestant Reformation arose against the evil practices of the Catholic Church and Clergy. Likewise Catholic Reformation or Counter Reformation arose as a reaction against the Protestantism and wanted to reform Catholic Church within.It also tried to reform the abusive practices of Catholic Church and corruption of Clergy.

Question 2 Choose one of the territories mentioned on the map above. In one to two paragraphs, explain in detail how the territo
irinina [24]

Answer:

Part A

    Many American residents subscribe to the concept of manifest destiny, the theory that Americans are destined to spread throughout North America.

    To succeed, there are three elements to take into consideration; American values and institutions, which form a distinct character of American society; the country's mission to redeem and remake the American West according to the ideals of the agrarian East; and an inescapable destiny to accomplish this fundamental duty. Native Americans were subjected to genocidal policies based on the concept of manifest destiny, which has been widely criticized.

    As Thomas Jefferson notes in a letter to James Monroe, "Our quick multiplication will spread over the northern and southern continents, unless we learn to control it." It may be likened to a "inauguration of a new time scale" since the globe would see history from before and after the Declaration of Independence as distinct epochs. In some people's eyes, a spiritual duty to extend its political system and way of life across North America, underlies the establishment of a central governing authority in North America.

Part B

    With the Treaty of Paris, the United States acquired independence, extending its boundaries seven times, with two major boundary modifications (with the UK and Spain), and many smaller conflicts. Most of the United States started off as territories that later evolved into states.

    The main trend observed in this carving, alteration, and ultimate statehood is of geographical growth. Two out of the six states, Nevada and Missouri, increased their total area since statehood. In the five other states, Georgia, Massachusetts, North Carolina, Texas, and Virginia, each of the five former states lost territory to the new state.

Part C

    A total of 828,000 square miles, equivalent to the entire land mass of Europe, was bought for 15 million dollars (2,140,000 km2; 530,000,000 acres). 2.6-3.4 billion: the total cost of all treaties and financial settlements related to the land following.

    The purchase of Louisiana was a goal of the administration of President Thomas Jefferson. In 1800, France had recovered most of its former North American territories, which included New Orleans. Until 1762, Louisiana was part of the French Empire. The sale brought more states into the Union such as Arkansas, Missouri, Iowa, Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana, Wyoming, Minnesota, Texas, New Mexico, Louisiana, and New Orleans. The Louisiana Purchase granted the U.S. control of the Mississippi River. Louisiana had approximately 60,000 non-natives in 1733. approximately half of the people purchased were African slaves

Which best describes what France’s Old Regime was?
ElenaW [278]

Ancien regime or the old order was a social and political system of France prior to the revolution of France(1789). Under the old regime, the king of France was an absolute despot and had centralized power in the imperial administration. The political system of France was comprised of the 3 estates which served Clergy on the first stage, Nobility on the second and the Others on the third estate. Thus the old regime came to an end with the French revolution of 1789, when the revolutionaries abolished the hereditary Monarchy and the system of French nobility.
