Martin Luther's protest of indulgences and other church activities deemed as immoral began with him posting the 95 theses against the established Catholic church(remember that the Great Schism was the divide between Catholic church based in Rome and the Eastern Orthodox church based in Constantinople). The Reformation of the early 1500's further split the Catholic church into people that believed the church should be led from Rome and, ultimately, that god should be accessible to all, not just through the Pope. Lutheranism was formed, named after Martin Luther, and soon after PROTESTantism was coined to encompass a number of those who PROTESTed against the Catholic Church. Soon after you see the rise of Anglicanism in England and Calvinism is the lowlands. This divide in the Christian world would shape many developments both between and within nations of Europe.
The Protestant Reformation started with the publication of Martin Luther's 95 Theses on 1517. This movement began as a social criticism of different controversial maneuvers of the Catholic Church, such as the sale of indulgences and the abuse of the clergy, evolving towards a proposal for reform in Roman Catholicism from the change in various points of the doctrine of the Catholic Church, based on what Luther understood as a return to the sacred scriptures.
The result of the Protestant Reformation was the division of the so-called Church of the West between Roman Catholics and Protestant reformers, originating Protestantism.
Reformation, also called Protestant Reformation, the religious revolution that took place in the Western church in the 16th century. ... Having far-reaching political, economic, and social effects, the Reformation became the basis for the founding of Protestantism, one of the three major branches of Christianity.
