History

Answer:

Galileo Galilei had to confront the Inquisition. His scientific work and discoveries questioned official beliefs supported by the Vatican. By questioning them, those discoveries also questioned the central position of the Church in society. If, for example, Earth was not the center of the Solar System and all the planets don´t orbit Earth, then the universal Church was not at the center of the system. Galilei´s conclusions were dangerous for the Catholic Church.

Naddika [18.5K]

The Warring States period (481/403 BCE - 221 BCE) describes the three centuries when various rival Chinese states battled viciously for territorial advantage and dominance. Ultimately the Qin state was victorious and established the first unified Chinese state. Besides incessant warfare, and probably because of it, the period saw significant developments in society, commerce, agriculture, philosophy, and the arts, setting the foundations for the subsequent flourishing of Imperial China.
