Protestantism, in the context of the alternate timeline, refers to a diverse collection of religious movements that emerged from a distinct Reformation movement. It played a crucial role in shaping world politics and religious dynamics, with its influence most prominently seen in its involvement in conflicts such as the Great Jacobite War and the 7 Years' War.
Unlike the Protestant Reformation of the real world, this alternate universe's Reformation unfolded differently, sparked by unique catalysts and historical events. As a result, it gave rise to Protestant doctrines and denominations that diverged significantly from their real-world counterparts. In this universe, Protestantism had a more profound impact on global politics, with powerful empires seeking to assert their religious and political agendas.
Two of the most significant conflicts in this alternate timeline where Protestantism played a crucial role were the Great Jacobite War and the 7 Years' War. In this universe, these wars were not merely territorial or economic disputes but were also driven by religious tensions between Protestant and Catholic-aligned forces. The outcomes of these conflicts had lasting effects on the global balance of power and the political landscape.
Several prominent figures emerged within alternate-universe Protestantism, with unique backgrounds and accomplishments compared to their real-world counterparts. Additionally, the theological concepts held by these figures and their followers often diverged significantly from historical Protestant theology. This resulted in a distinct Protestant identity that shaped the religious landscape and influenced global developments in this universe.
