Martin Luther was a key figure in the Protestant Reformation, born in 1483 and dying in 1546. His significant actions, such as posting the Ninety-Five Theses in 1517 and refusing to recant at the Diet of Worms in 1521, sparked reforms in the Church and led to the rise of Protestantism. He also translated the Bible into German, increasing access to the scriptures for the public.
