the Habsburgs were rising to power
the emperor was fighting the Ottomans and the French
Luther was about to kickstart the Protestant reformation
princes were about to revolt for more power and independence using Luther's preachings as excuse
peasants were about to revolt (without success)
knights and petty feudal lords were losing their medieval powers and rights and waged wars to try to prevent it but to no avail, territorial princes took over
the emperor tried to centralize the empire with a system of 'imperial circles', but to no avail
Swabian merchants like the Fuggers or Welsers were making fat bank and became some of the richest men on earth at the time

Apparently this lad was a real powerhouse back in his day, before he got fat and drunk. Also he was 188cm tall, which was pretty big for the time.

yeah it was a thing, but i made a mistake, it wasn't Zygmunt August but his father, king Zygmunt I Stary
and because of the invitation Zygmunt Stary considered inviting Sultan for the wedding of his son Zygmunt August but ultimately he didn't, as inviting muslims for a catholic wedding would be too much

Tupis, whose origins lie in the lower Amazonian basin, had driven the Jês out of the coastline and taken over the region. Some more developed Tupi and Guarani chiefdoms lived around agriculture and were starting to resemble kingdoms. The Amazon had become densely populated, with around 5-8 million inhabitants, a number of proto-urban settlements and a distant-reaching trade network along the rivers. Some say the first Portuguese here was Duarte Pacheco in 1498. The total population of Brazil was around 8-10 million.
