It's February in the year 1534 and the Anabaptists of Münster are preparing their town for the upcoming apocalypse.

As the influx of new residents changes the political profile of Münster, a new radical council is elected.  However, the new co-mayors find themselves struggling to prevent Münster from spiraling out of control.

The new Bishop Prince of Münster attempts to bring it to heel via a blockade of the city.  Eventually, a compromise is reached between the parties and the blockade is lifted, but the influx of new residents sees storm clouds brewing on the horizon.

Contrary to the expectations of many Anabaptists, the apocalypse fails to take place at Strasbourg in 1534.  So - apocalypse is reset to occur in Münster during 1525.

To promote my Patreon page, I am posting one of my recent Patreon series as a bonus for History of the Crusades subscribers.  In this first episode of a 27 part series, we take a look at the German city of Münster and at the emergence of the Anabaptist religion.
