    What If - the Spanish Aramada had succeded

    All those WWII threads and speculations are kind of meh - boring.

    Here, the spanish armada sucessfully invades UK and turn it into a catholic hellhole, but what effects will that have ?

    I still expect Martin Luther to emerge and make his disturbances.
    With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.

        It was such a Catholic hellhole that it prospered and ruled an Empire larger than any in Europe, but do go on.

        Don't let me stop with your hate-on.

            The pinnacle was after they passed emancipation. But again, do go on about how the Catholics prevented all that.

                        You're right, Anglicanism is both Catholic and reformed. Anglicanism
                        Roman Catholics

                              The Empire stuff was almost entirely after we kicked the Catholics out.
