Calvin's Geneva refers to the city of Geneva during the Protestant Reformation under the leadership of John Calvin in the 16th century. Calvin established a theocratic government that emphasized strict moral discipline, religious conformity, and the implementation of Reformed theology. His influence transformed Geneva into a center of Protestant thought and a refuge for those fleeing religious persecution. The city became a model for Reformed churches and communities throughout Europe.

Why did Calvinism spread more rapidly than the Lutheran religion?

it had the means of spreading its ideas, e.g. missionaries from Calvins academy in Geneva, and also the Geneva printing press made easy distribution of ideas. Calvins church also had the structural support, unlike luther. Calvinist followers could set up their own private worship (conventicles), which then escalated into parish counsels etc. This made it possible for independants to practise calvinism. Luther had no structure behind his ideas which made it hard for followers to worship without looking for superior guidance.. if you get my drift....
