1 Section 3 Standards-Based Instruction Section 3 The Division of Christendom Standards at a Glance Students have explored the origins of the Reformation and official Catholic Church reaction to it. In this section, students will learn about the religious conflict that swept in the years following the Reformation and Counter- Section Focus Question How did religious conflict divide? Before you begin the lesson for the day, write the Section Focus Question on the board. (Possible answers: Some Protestant rulers distanced themselves and their nations politically from the Church; when a monarch established a state religion, citizens who accepted that religion fought with and often persecuted nonbelievers within their own nation.) Prepare to Read Build Background Knowledge To introduce the concept of conflict, have students take stock of the situation in after the Council of Trent. Ask them to speculate on the way many Catholics and Protestants may have felt about each other. (Each side probably harbored ill will against the other.) Have them read and comment upon the title of Section 3; then, as they read the section, encourage them to jot down notes about the who, what, where, when, why, and how of this conflict. Set a Purpose Read each statement in the Reading Readiness Guide aloud. Ask students to mark the statements true or false. Reading Readiness Guide, p. 46 Have students discuss the statements in pairs and mark their worksheets again. Use the Numbered Heads strategy (TE p.

As the reform movement spread across, ordinary people and their rulers were forced to take sides. This division between Catholics and Protestants resulted in seemingly endless religious wars. It was nearly a century before the bitter religious fighting ended. Protestant Northern Germany was the birthplace of the Protestant faith. Luther s followers set up Lutheran churches in much of northern Germany. The Lutheran religion quickly spread north to Sweden, Denmark, and Norway and then east to Poland. Calvinism traveled to Switzerland, Scotland, and the Netherlands. In some places, the ideas of Luther and Calvin took hold easily. In others, fighting erupted over religion. The English Reformation In England, Luther s ideas at first met with opposition. Henry VIII, the king of England, wrote a book criticizing Luther s ideas. Protestant reformers were burned at the stake or forced out of England. L1 Special Needs main idea in their own words. Then, have them work in pairs to write (1) a brief explanation of how each statement came to be and (2) one or two ideas about what might have happened if had not become so divided. 516 Chapter 18

2 In 1529, however, Henry VIII came into conflict with the pope. Henry wanted the pope to annul his marriage to Catherine of Aragon. An annulment is an official action ending a marriage. The pope refused Henry s request. Henry was furious at having his power limited by the pope. He acted boldly. Without the pope s approval, in 1533, he married Anne Boleyn. In the years that followed, Henry married four more times. Then, Henry called Parliament into session. Urged on by the king, its members formed the Church of England. They declared this church to be independent of the Catholic Church. In 1534, Parliament passed the Act of Supremacy. This act made the king the leader of the Church of England. Religious Warfare in Germany In southern Germany, by contrast, the Holy Roman Empire sided with the Catholic Church. The Holy Roman Emperor was Catholic and wanted his empire to be Catholic as well. In 1547, imperial troops defeated a group of Protestant leaders in Germany. The emperor forced the people in some German cities to convert back to the Catholic faith. This crackdown started a religious war between Protestants and Catholics. The treaty known as the Peace of Augsburg ended the war in However, the treaty did not bring religious unity to Germany. It allowed each prince to decide which religion Catholic or Lutheran would be followed in his realm. Whoever rules, his religion was the policy of the treaty. Instead of a unified Catholic empire, Germany was now a group of independent regions with different religious traditions. Northern Germany was mostly Protestant, while most of southern Germany was Catholic. Which areas of became Protestant during the Reformation? History Background Henry s Protestantism At first, the doctrine of the Church of England was the same as that of the Catholic Church. Then, in 1536, the Church of England produced the Ten Articles of its faith. This document limited some Catholic practices but did not condemn Catholicism.

His Act of Six Articles (1539) restored all Catholic doctrines except for the supremacy of the pope. It was not until the reigns of Henry s son Edward VI and then daughter Elizabeth I that England truly became Protestant. Even today, the Church of England is the most Catholic Protestant denomination. Teach Protestant Northern H-SS Instruction High-Use Words Before teaching this lesson, preteach the high-use words Parliament and finance, using the strategy on TE p Key Terms Following the instructions on p. 7, have students create a See It Remember It chart for key terms in this section. Have students read Protestant Northern, using the Oral Cloze strategy (TE p. T36). As students read about the founding of the Church of England, ask: Who was mainly responsible for the founding of this church? (King Henry VIII) You may wish to explain that an annulment states that the marriage contract was invalid and was never a marriage. Ask: Which war was ended by the Treaty of Augsburg? (a war between Catholics and Protestants in Germany) Why do you think ans went to war with one another over religious beliefs, instead of allowing freedom of religion? (Possible answer: Many people believed that heresy against the religion they believed in was sinful and wrong.)

3 Catholic Southern H-SS Instruction Have students read Catholic Southern. Remind students to look for causes and effects as they read. As students read about religious conflict in France, ask: Who do you think was more to blame for this conflict: the Catholics or the Protestants? (Students may suggest that the Huguenots deliberately provoked the Catholics but that the king s response was overly harsh.) Ask: What happened in France on St. Bartholomew s Day in 1572? (Thousands of Huguenots were killed.) Invite students to explain the quotation, Our wars of religion are making us forget our religion. (Possible answer: The speaker probably felt that people were setting aside their beliefs in their zeal to fight those who did not share their beliefs.) At this point, distribute the worksheet Eyewitness to a Massacre. Have students read De Thou s account and answer the questions that follow. Then, ask: Why do you think the Catholics sent Coligny s head to Rome? (Possible answer: to show the leaders of the Catholic Church that the Protestants in France were being defeated) Eyewitness to a Massacre, p. 51 Southern remained largely Catholic during the St. Bartholomew s Day Massacre Conflict between Catholics and Huguenots tore France apart. The deadliest incident was the St. Bartholomew s Day Massacre. Violence first erupted in Paris and quickly spread to the provinces. Critical Thinking: Apply Information How did King Henry IV help diffuse conflicts between Catholics and Huguenots? Catholic Southern The Protestant religions spread into southern as well. However, the nations of southern remained largely Catholic. Italy retained its Catholic faith. The powerful Catholic rulers of Spain became the main defenders of the Catholic Church in. France remained Catholic, though not without conflict with a growing number of French Protestants. Religious Conflict in France The Catholic king of France at first allowed Huguenots, as French Protestants were called, to worship freely. In 1534, however, the situation changed. Huguenots put up posters all over Paris denouncing the Catholic Church, even on the king s bedroom door. The king ordered the arrest of hundreds of Protestants. Some were burned alive for their views. Civil war broke out between Catholics and Huguenots in The worst single day of violence occurred in In Paris, some 3,000 Huguenots were killed in what became known as the St. Bartholomew s Day Massacre. Thousands more were slain in other areas. Our wars of religion are making us forget our religion, remarked a French general about the bloodshed. Henry of Navarre, a Huguenot military leader, helped to end the civil wars. Henry was the rightful heir to the French throne, but Catholics refused to accept a Protestant king. To end resistance to his assuming the throne, in 1593, Henry became a Catholic. He was crowned Henry IV the following year. The civil wars ended soon after Henry assumed the throne. In 1598, Henry proclaimed the Edict of Nantes. An edict is an official public order made by a king or another authority. It made the Catholic Church the official church of France. But it also gave Huguenots the freedom to practice their own religion. 518 Chapter 18 The Reformation Universal Access Answer Apply Information He made Catholicism the state religion, but he also allowed the Huguenots to worship as they pleased.

In 1555, Philip inherited control of the Netherlands, a wealthy trading nation in northern. However, many people there had converted to Calvinism. To combat heretics, Philip set up the Inquisition in the Netherlands. The Dutch people rebelled, and Philip fought a war to keep control. The fighting lasted more than 75 years and devastated the economy of the Netherlands. Spain lost control of the northern Netherlands, which became a Calvinist country. Philip was angry that Elizabeth I, queen of England, had sent troops to aid the Dutch rebels. He also wanted to force England back to the Catholic Church. In 1588, Philip sent an armada, or fleet of ships, to attack England. When the Spanish Armada entered the English Channel, English ships attacked and sank most of the Spanish fleet. The defeat weakened Spain s power. 40 N 60 N 50 N 40 E There were three major Christian groups in in the 1600s: Roman Catholic, Protestant, and Eastern Orthodox.

Have students react to the English statement at the defeat of the Spanish Armada: God breathed, and they were scattered. What does this reveal about the attitude of the English? (Possible answer: It shows they believed that God fought on their side and, therefore, that God favored Protestantism over Catholicism.) Ask: What was the Peace of Westphalia?

Reading Readiness Guide, p. 46 Section 3 The Division of Christendom 519 History Background Aftermath of the Massacre The St. Bartholomew s Day Massacre took place in Paris on August 24, It took some time for word of the violence to spread through France. The king issued a series of contradictory orders: He first said that no more murders would be tolerated, but the next day he ordered that all Huguenots who congregated be put to death. So many murders occurred in Paris that the cemeteries ran out of room, and hundreds of bodies were thrown into the Seine River. After a subsequent massacre at Lyons, so many Huguenot corpses floated down the river toward Arles that the Arlesians could no longer use water from the river for drinking or eat any of its fish.
