The main arguments of the reformers come from a free and personal interpretation of the Bible.
The Protestants noticed the excesses of Catholic traditions. Martin Luther (1483-1546) in Germany and Jean Calvin (1509-1564) in France rejected the authority of the Church, which defines itself as the sole interpreter of the divine faith.
The pillars of Protestantism are expressed by the solae:
- The Bible is the supreme authority.
- Salvation is obtained by faith alone
Salvation is not the result of effort or merit.
- Jesus is the only mediator between men and God (rejection of papal authority)
- God is the only one to worship.
Luther found among some German princes support and protection to divulge his ideas. They also harbored grudges against the pope and the high clergy. Luther undertook to translate the Bible into German and the Reformation spread among the German principalities.
In England, Henry VIII proclaims himself "Supreme Head of the Church and Clergy" and breaks all diplomatic relations with Rome. In this situation of weakness of the Catholic Church, the Reform is spreading in Europe

Answer: the south
Explanation:
When america was first founded, the south was used for resources on farms and plantations and the north was more industrialized, using factories and such to make different products. Due to the fact that plantations are very large plots of land and the south had a high demand for different resources such as cotton and rice, the owners needed help and so they used slaves to do their work. Being that slaves were treated like property, they were paid either very poorly or not at all so it ended up giving the land owners a huge profit. They make a lot of money from their products and they don't spend it on paying workers. Therefore, if slavery was abolished, the owners would not fulfill the demand of the people and they cannot work efficiently on the large plot of land by themselves, which would lead to a large drop in personal income.
