In 1514, pope leo x extended the practice of indulgences across europe. what benefit would this have for the pope and the catholic church?

The benefit sought by Pope Leo X was extra funding to pay for his major project of rebuilding St. Peter's Basilica in Rome.

However, that benefit for the Pope and the Catholic Church was challenged and outweighed by the fact that the selling of indulgences provoked the Protestant Reformation.

In October, 1517, Martin Luther, a German monk/priest/professor, put forth a document that has become known as "The 95 Theses," questioning the practice of indulgences.  The official title of Luther's document, which he put forth as theses for debate, was:  Disputation on the Power and Efficacy of Indulgences.  Indulgences were papers issued by the authority of the pope that granted people removal of penance owed for their sins.  Luther objected not only to the fact that these papers were being peddled for money, but questioned many of the doctrinal foundations behind the use of indulgences.

The 95 Theses met with great resistance by the church hierarchy because Luther was attacking the money-making asset that indulgences had become for the church, and he was challenging the authority of the pope. But the common people responded with great interest and enthusiasm., and the Refomation movement was underway.

i do knot know this

pepin the short[a] (german: pippin der kurze, french: pépin le bref, c. 714 – 24 september 768) was the king of the franks from 751 until his death. he was the first of the carolingians to become king.[b][2]

the younger son of the frankish prince charles martel and his wife rotrude, pepin's upbringing was distinguished by the ecclesiastical education he had received from the monks of st. denis. succeeding his father as the mayor of the palace in 741, pepin reigned over francia jointly with his elder brother carloman. pepin ruled in neustria, burgundy, and provence, while his brother carloman established himself in austrasia, alemannia and thuringia. the brothers were active in suppressing revolts led by the bavarians, aquitanians, saxons, and the alemanni in the early years of their reign. in 743, they ended the frankish interregnum by choosing childeric iii, who was to be the last merovingian monarch, as figurehead king of the franks.
