THIRTY YEARS WAR

Start: The new Holy Roman Emperor, Ferdinand II, tried to impose religious uniformity on his domains, forcing Roman Catholicism on its peoples. (101 years after the 1517 publication of the Ninety-the five Theses by Martin Luther.)

Initially a war between various Protestant and Catholic states in the fragmented Holy Roman Empire, it gradually developed into a more general conflict involving most of the great powers. These states employed relatively large mercenary armies, and the war became less about religion and more about power and domination.

THE ENLIGHTENMENT

If taken back to the mid-17th century, the Enlightenment would trace its origins to Descartes’ Discourse on the Method, published in 1637.

Or the year that Louis XIV died

Ending with the beginning of the French Revolution.

If taken back to the mid-17th century, the Enlightenment would trace its origins to Descartes’ Discourse on the Method, published in 1637. In France, many cited the publication of Isaac Newton’s Principia Mathematica in 1687. It is argued by several historians and philosophers that the beginning of the Enlightenment is when Descartes shifted the epistemological basis from external authority to internal certainty by his cogito ergo sum published in 1637.

As to its end, most scholars use the last years of the century, often choosing the French Revolution of 1789 or the beginning of the Napoleonic Wars (1804–1815) as a convenient point in time with which to date the end of the Enlightenment.
