Prior to the Protestant Reformation, pretty much everyone in Europe was a Roman Catholic. Martin Luther changed all that. Luther didn't like the corruption he saw in the church, especially the sale of indulgences. So, he left the church and started his own. And it really did kind of change the world. Part of the "Crash Course World History II" series.
