Answer:"The Dutch Caribbean refers to territories, colonies, and countries, both former and current, of the Dutch Empire and Kingdom of the Netherlands that are located in the Lesser Antilles archipelago of the Caribbean Sea. Current territories comprise the islands of Aruba, Curacao, Sint Maarten, Bonaire, Sint Eustatius, and Saba. The contemporary term is sometimes also used for the Caribbean Netherlands, an entity since 2010 consisting of the 3 islands of Bonaire, Sint Eustatius, and Saba, which are special municipalities of the Netherlands." All of the islands in the Dutch Caribbean were, at some point in their history, part of the colony of Curacao and Dependencies (1815–1954); and then the constituent country of the Netherlands Antilles (1954−2010). The autonomy of the Netherlands Antilles island areas was specified in the Islands Regulation of the Netherlands Antilles. The former Dutch colony of Suriname was not considered part of Dutch Caribbean, although it was in the southern Caribbean in Northeastern South America."

The Muslim scholars of what historians call the School of Toledo (12th century) were responsible for the translation of many Greek texts to the Arabic and then to Latin. Because of these translations, the studying of those texts increased and they started to be read on European universities.
Many Toledo translations were important for major Renaissance scientists as Roger Bacon (c. 1219/20 – c. 1292) and Copernicus (1473-1543), for example.
The re-discovery of ancient Greek texts due to their translation from the School of Toledo is an example of cultural diffusion. The work done in Toledo kept those texts alive and being read until they found interested audiences in the rest of Europe.

Explanation:
If we consider the Reformation as an action, then we must think of the context of the action. The Roman Catholic Church controlled religion life and had a strong hand on political life in 1500. The Emperor's ultimate authority came from God and the church, and religious unity was increasingly a key aspect of the emerging kingdoms.
When Luther proclaimed his thesis, he was challenging this status quo. Just as a force applied to an object at rest attempts to move it. He challenged the authority of the Pope over religious beliefs, but also the authority of the Emperor over political life. The force he applied soon found support, and the object started to move all over Europe, like an object sliding down a ramp, gaining momentum.
However, the Catholic Church and the Emperor would not let their authority slip without resistance. The Counter-Reformation used many of the tools Luther had used to try and counter his arguments. The Emperor suppressed movements and uprising and pursued the Reformers. Friction increased as the momentum of the moving object increased, slowing it and questioning its initial energy.
