=Abstract=
My project's aim is to analyse King Henry VIII's personal agenda behind initiating the English Reformation. Starting out as a devout Catholic who would consistently defend the Pope and the Vatican, it is curious how he changed his mind so quickly when he wanted to divorce or annul his marriages. His greed and extravagant expenditure also raise questions towards ulterior motives when taking over the land owned by monasteries and appropriating their resources.

=Introduction=
<br>
I suggest you save this section for last. Describe the essence of this project. Cover what the project is and who cares in the first two sentences. Then cover what others have done like it, how your project is different. Discuss the extent to which your strategy for completing this project was new to you, or an extension of previous HUA experiences. 
<br><br>
As you continue to think about your project milestones, reread the "Goals" narrative on defining project milestones from the [[HU2900]] syllabus. Remember: the idea is to have equip your milestone with a really solid background and then some sort of "thing that you do". You'll need to add in some narrative to describe why you did the "thing that you did", which you'd probably want to do anyway. You can make it easy for your advisors to give you a high grade by ensuring that your project milestone work reflects careful, considerate, and comprehensive thought and effort in terms of your background review, and insightful, cumulative, and methodical approaches toward the creative components of your project milestone deliverables.
<br><br>
<span style="color: red">'''PLEASE NOTE:'''</span> this milestone template has only a few sections as examples, but your actual milestone should have '''many''' relevant sections '''and''' subsections. Please start to block out and complete those sections asking yourself "who, what, when, where, and why".
<br><br>
Remember, as you move toward your creative deliverable, you're going to want/need a solid background that supports your case, so you want it to paint a clear and thorough picture of what's going on, so that you can easily dissect your creative component and say "This thing I did is rooted in this aspect of my background research".

=Section 1: Background=
<br>
==Introduction==
===Reformation’s sweep across Europe===
The desire to reform the Catholic Church began in the 1400s, but it was not until the publication of Martin Luther’s Ninety-Five Theses in 1517 is what caused the movement to gain traction. Luther’s main argument was against the selling of indulgences, which supposedly reduced the punishment after death for sins committed. 
<br>
In 1521, the young Catholic king, Henry VIII, rebutted against Luther with his piece “Defense of the Seven Sacraments.”(https://archive.org/details/assertioseptem00henruoft) For this, Pope Leo X granted the King the title of “Defender of the Faith.” King Henry had demonstrated his faith and loyalty as a devout Catholic.
<br><br>
===Catherine of Aragon===
Henry was not the first in succession to his father, Henry VII. That position belonged to Arthur, Henry VIII’s brother. Arthur was betrothed to Catherine of Aragorn, daughter of the King and Queen of Castile. At the age of 15, Arthur died. 
<br>
===Cardinal Thomas Wolsey’s defense of Roman Catholicism===

=Section 2: Deliverable=
<br>

In this section, provide your contribution, creative element, assessment, or observation with regard to your background research. This could be a new derivative work based on previous research, or some parallel to other events. In this section, describe the relationship between your background review and your deliverable; make the connection between the two clear. 
<br><br>
==Subsection 1==
<br>
...use as many subsections or main sections as you need to support the claims for why what you did related to your ''Background'' section...
<br><br>
==Subsection 2==
<br>
...and so on and so forth...

For milestones completed collaboratively, add a section here '''detailing''' the division of labor and work completed as part of this milestone. All collaborators may link to this single milestone article instead of creating duplicate pages. This section is not necessary for milestones completed by a single individual.
