The sixteenth century was the upheaval known as the protestant revolt. At that time, the Peace of Westphalia decreed that if a prince left the Catholic Church to become a protestant, then everyone in his kingdom also had to become protestant, thus many sincere Catholics were denied access to the sacraments.

Does the Catholic Church allow marriage by proxy?
The Catholic Church generally does not permit marriage by proxy, which is when one or both parties are not physically present for the ceremony. However, there are exceptions in specific circumstances, particularly for military personnel or those in remote locations. In such cases, the Church may allow for a representative to stand in for the absent party, but this typically requires special permission from the bishop. Overall, direct participation in the sacrament is preferred and encouraged.
If a Catholic woman married a Non Catholic man outside of the Church then later divorced will she be able to remarry a Catholic man in Church?
If a Catholic married a Non-Catholic outside of the Church the marriage would be null and void. This is because a Catholic can only validly contract the sacrament of marriage in the Church and to another Catholic. Catholics are obliged by their faith to contract a sacramental marriage with a member of the Catholic Faith. Sometimes a dispensation can be gained to marry a baptized Non-Catholic, however, this ceremony must still be preformed in the Church and witnessed by a Catholic priest. Since the marriage was invalid, the "divorce" is redundant though a civil necessity- in the Church's eyes there was no valid marriage in the first place. In order to marry in the Church for the first time, the Catholic would now have to be reconciled to the Church. This may involve merely making a good confession or the parish priest may require more, such as catechism lessons and such, in order to judge the good faith of the penitent. It is then up to the discretion of the priest whether to consent to the proceedings for a marriage, providing all the usual impediments to a valid union are absent.
Can a Catholic marry a Mormon?
No. Only if the person that is Mormon became Catholic before he/she got engaged. Mormonism is considered paganism by the Catholic Church and its baptisms are declared dubious and invalid since Mormonism does not recognize the Divine Trinity of God as three equal persons in one Godhead. Hence the necessary baptismal intention is absent even though the matter and form of the Mormon practice are correct. Since Catholics cannot validly marry anyone who is not at least validly baptized, Catholics may not enter into the marriage contract with a Mormon.

Did The Protestant Church play a major role in colonizing the Spanish borderlands?
The Protestant Church did not play a major role in the colonization of the Spanish borderlands, as this territory was primarily influenced by Catholic Spain. The Spanish crown sought to spread Catholicism through missions and settlements, reflecting the Catholic Church's significant involvement in the colonization process. Protestantism had a more pronounced impact in other regions, such as North America, particularly in areas settled by the English. Therefore, while Protestantism influenced some colonization efforts elsewhere, it was largely absent from the Spanish borderlands.
