Question
How did the Reformation deepen rivalries between European nations?
Solution
VerifiedThe Reformation deepened rivalries between European nations because divisions over religion were added to already existing tensions. Countries which split from the Catholic church were pitted against those countries who remained loyal to the Pope and Catholicism. One can see this conflict in the Spanish attempts to invade England in 1588. One Spanish justification for the invasion was to avenge the death of the Catholic Mary Queen of Scots and bring England back to the Catholic church.
