Riemann was born in [[Germany]], a devoutly [[Christian]] son of a [[Lutheran]] pastor.  He was schooled at home by his father, and was sent to attend a prominent school (Johanneum at Luneburg) at the age of 16.  Riemann quickly became bored with the math class and asked the director for more advanced material.  The director gave him most advanced math books (including [[Leonhard Euler]]'s works and Adrien Marie Legendre's Theory of Numbers).  Riemann mastered them in merely a few days.<ref>http://www.andrews.edu/~calkins/math/biograph/199899/bioriema.htm</ref>
