Thirty Years War: Effects

⦿ Mercenary soldiers were violent and destructive, burning homes and fields

⦿ Depopulation: Several million Germans (20%) died not just from battle but from disease and starvation.

⦿

The last major religious war in Europe

Basically, let’s not kill each other over religion anymore.

END OF VIOLENCE ACCOMPANYING

THE REFORMATION

Thirty Years War: Effects⦿ Big Change = Europe now a collection of several independent

states, religious differences between Catholic and Protestant states now accepted

Question

⦿ Look at the Causes - How could this connect to today’s world??? How/why is it relevant?
