Religion was a significant area of conflict between Mary Queen of Scots and Elizabeth I due to their differing faiths—Mary was a Catholic, while Elizabeth was Protestant. This religious divide intensified political tensions, as Mary represented a legitimate Catholic claim to the English throne, making her a focal point for Catholic opposition to Elizabeth's rule. The Catholic Church and various Catholic powers in Europe, particularly Spain, supported Mary, which further exacerbated the conflict and jeopardized Elizabeth's reign. Additionally, the Protestant Reformation had created a volatile political landscape, where religion was intertwined with issues of loyalty and governance.
No, but some gangs still cause some trouble.
There is no difference. Catholics play the same sports and in the same manner as a Protestant.
The conflict is primarily between the religious factions, Catholic and Protestant. Since it remained part of the UK, Northern Ireland has a history of Protestant domination in government and the economy. This friction has been expressed several times in violence and terrorism on both sides. The Nationalists continue to seek a union of the six Northern Ireland counties with larger Ireland, which is Catholic.
The Thirty Years War (1618-1648) was primarily sparked by religious tensions between Protestant and Catholic states within the Holy Roman Empire. The immediate catalyst was the Defenestration of Prague in 1618, when Protestant nobles threw two Catholic officials out of a window, igniting a conflict between Protestant and Catholic leagues. Additionally, political power struggles among European powers, including France, Spain, and the Habsburgs, further exacerbated the situation, transforming a local dispute into a broader continental war. The conflict evolved into a struggle for political dominance, leading to widespread devastation across Europe.
Protestant worship was in the local language. Catholic worship was in Latin. The protestant congregations sang hymns. The Catholic congregations did not. Since the Lutheran worship service was a translation of the Roman Catholic one before Trent, little difference existed there.
