This lecture invites you to explore the history of the Holy Roman Empire through the reign of Charles V, one of the most powerful rulers of the 16th century. Driven by his ambition to preserve the unity of his vast empire, he had to contend with political rivalries, religious conflicts, and the rise of the Protestant Reformation. This is an opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of the challenges faced by this emperor, the reasons for the failure of his ideal of Christian unity, and the upheavals that shaped European history.
