The Peace of Augsburg (1555) and the Peace of Westphalia (1648) both aimed to address religious conflicts in Germany, fostering a degree of cooperation among the various states. The Augsburg treaty allowed for the coexistence of Catholicism and Lutheranism, establishing the principle of "cuius regio, eius religio," which recognized the rights of rulers to determine their territory's faith. The Westphalia treaties further expanded this framework by recognizing Calvinism and promoting broader religious tolerance among the German states. Together, these agreements laid the groundwork for a more stable political environment, reducing religious warfare and enhancing cooperation among the diverse principalities of Germany.
