Yes, German states (and other nations) ruled by Protestants were "freed" from the coalition of Catholic states known as the Holy Roman Empire. The Protestant states thus no longer were under authority of the Pope.
Far more important is that this savage war from 1618-1648 beat both Catholics and Protestants into grudging acceptance of each other. This "tolerance" ended all Catholic efforts at Counter-Reformation, and its attendant religious wars.
Also crucial to ending strife was the agreement that the official religion of any state, no matter the beliefs of its population, was to be the religion of the state's ruler.
