How did the reformation indirectly contribute to the growth of democracy and the idea of individualism?

sergey [27]

The Reformation promoted an individual relationship with God and that anyone could find salvation through hard work.

Democracy--the Protestant reformation taught people they could have a say in the own salvation and did not need a Church leader such as the Pope to provide them salvation. This thinking convince people they could lead themselves and have a say in other parts of their life such as their government.

Individualism--because the Reformation taught that individual people could be the key to their own salvation, it began to convince people they could find progress on their own. Individualism grew as an idea as more people believed they could control their own destiny through their own hard work.
