Episode: Council of Trent (1545-1563)
Description: The watershed event of the sixteenth century for the Roman Church was the Council of Trent. While there had been many councils before Trent and a few after, none of them took such a firm stand on what the Pope demands to be taught in the churches. Trent becomes the birthplace of the modern Roman Catholic Church.
