It took place within the Catholic Churches controled by the See of Rome. This included all Catholic congregations in schism with the papacy over the 1517 Papal Bull issued against the Catholic Council of Bishops; removing them from their authority over dogma and doctrine within Western-Catholicism. Many Catholic congregations converted to Evangelical Protestant or Reformed theologies throughout Europe. Germanic, Frankish, Celtic, and Scandinavian trides controlled by the Holy Roman Empire consisted of Evangelical Protestant and Reformed congregations converting from papal authority to a more recognizable continuance of Catholicism within these newly named Church bodies.
Many people assume that Protestants are called Protestant simply because they are somehow protesting against the Catholic Church. That's almost historically correct, but not completely. In 1529, The Diet of Speyer reaffirmed an earlier decision of the Diet of Worms in 1521. Both decisions banned Martin Luther's 95 Theses within the Holy Roman Empire. In 152T9, the Lutheran Princes within the Empire wrote a public Letter of Protest against this decision, and this group of Lutheran Princes became known as Protestants. In time, the term Protestant was extended from the protesting Princes to include the religious reformers, such as Luther, Calvin and Zwingli. Still later, the term Protestant came to include anyone who believes in Jesus Christ, but who does not worship within the Roman Catholic Church, or within the Eastern Orthodox Churches.
it was called the "thirty years war".
The Roman Catholic Church was never considered the official religion anywhere for the simple reason that there is NO "Roman Catholic Church", that is just an epithet that started in England following the protestant revolt. The Catholic Church was first made legal in the old Roman empire in 313 during the reign of Constantine I. In 380 A.D., under Emperor Theodosius I, Christianity became the state religion of the Roman Empire by the decree of the Emperor, which would persist until the fall of the Western Empire. In 800A.D.,with the coronation of Charlemagne as the Holy Roman Emperor, all of what would become Europe became a Catholic empire, and remained so as long as the rulers were Catholic. Thus, in Northern Germany and England, the Church was no longer considered the official religion by the newly minted protestant princes in those countries.
