In 1548, Charles forced the
Diet of Augsburg to accept the
new statement of faith; The
interim
Allowed communion of
both kinds & clerical
marriage
Confirmed Catholic teachings
Protestant leaders
condemned it
Pope Paul condemned
some of the small
concessions (compromises
made)
Ferdinand withdrew his support when
Charles tried to have his son, Philip
recognised as a empire ruler
Catholic princes were afraid
Charles would assert his
authority over them
1550 the Baltic princes formed a
2nd League of Torgau to defend
their rights & the Lutheran faith
Maurice had not recieved everything he
was promised by Charles so switched
sides & supported the League in 1551
Maurice then changed sides when he heard
that Charles was buying off the Princes
Maurice had not enough troops to break with Henry II, he
reached an agreement with Charles V at the Treaty of
Passau in August 1552 (Lutheran princes allowed worship
till the next Diet & John Fredrick & Philip of Hesse released)
Maurice is an important factor for the
survival of Lutheranism
Enemies joined against
Charles V & the Pope & his
brother stood aside, he could
only rely on spanish taxation
for money
PEACE AT AUGSBURG 1555
Left Ferdinand to negotiate a
compromise - Charles did not
attend
Charles V abdicated in 1556
Catholics & Protestants to
be equally represented at
the Imperial Council
All property of the Church taken over
before 1552 was to remain
protestant - NO FURTHER
SECULARISATIONS
Secular princes (not
bound by a religious
rule) should decide on
the religion of the
people in their territory
People allowed to move freely
from state to state to choose their
religion
Showed Lutheranism could not be
crushed by force
Marked the failure of Charles V - unity of
Christian Europe had been destroyed
Peace did not allow
worship of other religion
(calvinism)
