The Catholic Church #1
The first indulgences were sold in 1095. The indulgences were sold by the church as “a free path to heaven.” Martin saw this as unfair because the poor were spending all their money for a fake piece of paper. The church was doing this just to raise money for a new church and they wouldn’t actually pass purgatory and go straight to heaven.

Invention- Eyeglasses
The eyeglasses were invented actually invented around 1825, but had been thought about long before during the renaissance. Salvino D’Armate was the one to actually come up with the idea and design them, but along with him Allesandro Della Spina helped him and was the one to spread them to the people.
