History

4 0

During the time of the selling of indulgences, purgatory was (and still is, I believe) believed to be the midpoint between heaven and hell. God would send you there and you would have to spend time their for your sins you committed on Earth. The Catholic Church sold indulgences as a way of getting quick money. They told the people that buying indulgences would get you out of time in purgatory. The real reason the church sold indulgences was to get money to patronize art.

How did foreign conflict play a role in Charles V’s abdication of the throne?
Alecsey [184]

Ruling various empires involved Charles V in constant warfare. This, along with his failing health, is the most likely reason for Charles to have abdicated the throne.

Charles V abdicated his empire slowly. His first abdication were the kingdoms of Sicily and Naples in 1554. The final one was the abdication of the throne of the Holy Roman Empire in 1556. Moreover, he suffered crippling gout, along with epilepsy and a deformity of the jaw.
