Diet of Speyer
The Diet of Speyer took place in 1529 in the city of Speyer, Germany, and was an official governmental and religious council session.
It is most known by the discussion about the reinstatment of the Edict of Worms and the official declaration of "Protestation" of members that supported Martin Luther and his teachings, trying to keep this edict from being adopted again. This action created the term Protestantism still used today as a name for this religious movement.
