Best Answer

In Europe, most of the rulers of the different nations started out as Catholics (before the protestant revolt), and their nations saw their Catholicism as part of their national character. Spain, France, and Italy are all prime examples. The New world, the government was not primarily Catholic, in the North, it was protestant, even puritan. Well, in the south it was pagan.
