A most famous conflict between protestants and catholics was the spanish armada.
Elizebeth led England into battle against catholic Spain and won the amada despite having less ships.
The Armada was defeated as much by the weather as the British navy.The British had small nimble ships that could get in between the larger Spanish galleons.The Brits sent in fire ships that caused havoc amongst the Spaniards.Also the Spanish were relying on Dutch forces to bolster their numbers.The final straw was the awful weather the Spanish had to deal with.They had to travel around trhe British Isles up the East coast around Scotland & into the Irish sea.They suffered more losses to the weather etc than to actual fighting.

The royal family of England murdered and tortured a lot of Catholics in Ireland. Queen Mary, 'bloody Mary' murdered a lot of Protestants. So there was a lot of bloodshed in the old days when England used them against each other, and the Catholics and Protestants held a grudge against each other long after the old generations passed away.
During the 1800s, there were issues of conflict between Roman Catholics and Protestants. Some of them were violent. However, there were great revivals among the Protestants at that time.
None anymore but in the 1960s-1990s there was conflict between the protestants and Catholics of the land because the Catholics wanted an united Ireland and the protestants wanted Northern Ireland to stay under British rule . no fighting anymore despite rumours from other sources
