The Thirty Years War is one of the great conflicts of early modern European history.
The Thirty Years War consisted of a series of declared and undeclared wars which raged through the years 1618-1648 throughout central Europe.
During the Thirty Years War the opponents were, on the one hand, the House of Austria: the Habsburg Holy Roman Emperors Ferdinand II and Ferdinand III together with their Spanish cousin Philip IV.
During the long course of the Thirty Years War the Habsburgs were opposed by various international opponents of House of Austria: the Danish, Dutch and, above all, France and Sweden.
In addition to its international dimensions the Thirty Years War was a German civil war. The principalities which made up Germany took up arms for or against the Habsburgs or, most commonly, both at different times during the war’s 30 years.
The Thirty Years War was also, at least in part, a religious war among Catholics, Lutherans and Calvinists. Ferdinand II and, to a lesser degree, his primary ally Maximillian I represented the re-Catholicizing zeal of the Jesuit Counter-reformation, while Frederick V of the Palatinate represented the equally militant forces of Calvinism
The conflict did not involve them. They had problems of their own brewing which lead to a civil war in 1642.

there have been 4 greater protestant revivals after the seventeenth century.Wesley(18th century) became one, the Baptist (nineteenth century) became yet another, and of direction Pentecost (1906 - twentieth century) became yet yet another.The Catholic church heavily isn't "off the hook" Sorry.God won't exchange His ideas approximately Nicolaitanism (....which ingredient He hates).in spite of the undeniable fact that! The Bible says that the Protestant Beast will post (provide that is authority) to the Catholic Beast (by way of the international Coucil of church homes) interior the top-Time and all people who wont settle for club in this non secular federation would be suggested on costs and accomplished.a minimum of people who omit the Rapture and are left at the back of.
