Product Notes
This collector's edition compiles two chronological programs which comprehensively detail the first 2,000 years of Western civilization's most significant religious movement. This first episode, which covers the religion's first 1,000 years, details the reforms taken by the Frankish king Charlemagne which took Europe from the Dark Ages and established Christianity as a predominant influence over the culture and politics of Western civilization. The second episode details the rise of Christianity from 1000 AD to 2000 AD, explores Luther's Protestant Reformation, Henry VIII's foundation of his own church, and the Christian battle against the naturalism of Darwin - among other subjects.
