Question

The Peace of Augsburg ended a war between supporters of which two groups?

Answer 1

The Peace of Augsburg, signed in 1555, ended a conflict between the supporters of the Roman Catholic Church and the followers of Lutheranism in the Holy Roman Empire. It established the principle of "cuius regio, eius religio," allowing rulers to determine the official religion of their own states, thereby providing a degree of legal recognition to Lutheranism alongside Catholicism.
