Interim of Augsburg
1548
Charles V imposed the Augsburg Interim on the German Protestant princes after his victory at Muehlberg, allowing limited Protestant practices while restoring most Catholic doctrine and ceremonies. Lutheran pastors resisted and many fled into exile. The settlement collapsed within a few years when Maurice of Saxony turned against the emperor.
