1 Feb 1550 Jahr - The Peace of Augsburg

Beschreibung:

The Peace of Augsburg (1555) temporarily eased the tensions arising from the Reformation, by allowing the legal co-existence of Protestants and Catholics in the Holy Roman Empire. Charles V abdicated the Spanish throne in 1556, and Philip II took over; and England's Golden Age began when Elizabeth I was crowned queen in 1558. Religious wars continued: The Battle of Lepanto, part of the Ottoman-Habsburg Wars, was fought in 1571, and the St. Bartholomew's Day Massacre of Protestants took place in France in 1572.
