Why did Reformation ideas most likely produce so many Protestant sects in Europe? Trade with the Middle East, Africa, and Asia e
dezoksy [38]

Answer: Questioning by reformers inspired more reformers.

The Reformation was a schism in Western Christianity initiated by Martin Luther's publication of the <em>Ninety-Five Theses</em> in 1517. It lasted roughly until 1648, when the Thirty Years' War ended.

The movement gave rise to several different Christian denominations, such as Lutherans, Baptists, Unitarians, Anglicans and Reformed. Its ideas were mostly restricted to Western Europe, although they were carried to the Americas and the rest of the world with the establishment of colonies. Although the Catholic Church tried to suppress these movements with the Counter-Reformation, the spread of ideas was difficult to contain. The beginning of the movement in Germany inspired other reformers all over Europe. The spread of information was aided by Gutenberg's recently introduced printing press.

There were many ideas that influenced the Reformation, such as the ideas of humanism and nationalism. Nevertheless, the movement was ultimately theological. It did not try to undermine Christianity as such, but Catholic practices that were perceived to contradict the scriptures.

List 2 reasons why in Pageant the authors call the Battle of Antietam Creek “the most decisive of the Civil War.”
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

Psychologically and politically.

Explanation:

The battle of Antietam was not crucial, Lincoln hoped it would be. However, the Union was now in a position to psychologically, politically and economically attack the Confederacy. In January 1863, Lincoln published the Emancipation Proclamation. The text implied freedom for all people controlled by the Union and freedom became a military objective so that as time progressed, more and more slaves were freed and joined the Union troops.

And if the proclamation did not have much resonance among Southerners, surely such a Lincoln attitude was psychological of exceptional value for the continuation of the war. The proclamation of emancipation brought with it a political victory, it was an official step towards the abolition of slavery, and the rest of the world was viewed by the Confederacy as barbarians still nurturing slavery.
