Answer: Because it showed that change is possible
Explanation/context:
The medieval era had been one in which the Roman Catholic Church dominated the culture of Europe, and it was thought that no one could successfully challenge such a deeply ingrained institution. However, the Reformation movement by Martin Luther and other Protestant figures showed that even something as entrenched and enduring at the Catholic Church could be challenged, and changes could be accomplished. Even during Martin Luther's lifetime, this idea that change was possible motivated people to launch efforts toward other major changes to powerful systems. The Peasants Revolt that occurred in Germany in 1524-1525 took Luther's push for reform in the church and applied it to make a push for change in feudal society. Martin Luther himself didn't agree with that and opposed the Peasants Revolt, but as Schaff points out, the momentum of the Reformation was a "propelling force" inspiring other "forward movements" to make changes in society.
Correct Answer: Vladimir the Great
Vladimir the Great was the Grand Prince of Kiev from 980 until the day he died in 1015. Although he was not the first to introduce Christianity into the Kievan Rus region (today Ukraine and Russia), he was the one who cemented it as the majoritarian religion in the area after his baptism in 988, ordering the end of paganism in the area (not without certain opposition). He unified most of this region unider his mandate.
As for the reason he chose Orthodox Christianity, it is somewhat shrouded in legend. The popular tale says that he sent emissaries to learn about the religions of neighboring. When they came back, he didn't like what he heard about the restrictions Islam and Judaism imposed, and he didn't find anything interesting in what was said of Westen Christianity. Instead, he was marveled by his emissaries tales of the Orthodox temples, as they said "they didn't know whether they were in heaven or Earth". As for the more historically accurate version, it is said that he converted in part as part of a military pact.
The answer is true, and the book he wrote is called "The Jungle", which he wrote in 1906.
