Catholic Christianity mainly. The others were usually either forced to convert or die.
It depends, of course on where you are talking about. In England, at the time Shakespeare lived in it, the only legal religion was the Church of England, a form of moderate Protestantism. In Northern Germany and the Scandinavian countries, Lutheran Protestant Christianity was the main religion, whereas in Switzerland, Scotland and the Netherlands they had a more Calvinist type of Protestantism. Everyone else in Europe, pretty much, was Roman Catholic. Islam was the main religion is the places it's the main religion today, and so was Hinduism. In China or Japan, you would probably be dealing with Buddhism.
