The Thirty Years' War
It began as a conflict between Protestants and Catholics in Central Europe.
No, first off the Thirty Year War was fought in central Europe and it started as a fight between protestants, mostly Calvinists and the Church but degraded into a war between France and the Hapsburgs who ruled the Holy Roman Empire, and both France and the Hapsburgs were Catholic. In Ireland, after the vicious suppression of Elizabeth I and there are no words to describe the horror under Cromwell, Catholics were completely disenfranchised, their property and livelihood was stolen from them by the English and they were forbidden to even speak their own language much less worship God. As horrible and dreadful as it all was, it had nothing to do with the Thirty Years War, and the Catholics were in no position to "fight" for control, they were just trying to survive.
I have not yet begun to fight! -- John Paul Jones in 1779
