During the protestant reformation, there were two major periods of conflict known as the Bohemian and Swedish phases. The causes of these conflicts had a number of long term effects on the protestant reformation including:
* Reduction in territory for many countries that had converted to Protestantism
* Many catholic territories being taken over by protestants
* Economic issues caused by constant warfare
* Long-lasting tensions between Catholics and Protestants
During the Bohemian phase, causalities were high due to large battles with heavy artillery being used. This is when leaders from both sides realized that casualties from war would be much less when taking place in smaller, more focused groups rather than larger armies which would result in greater loss of life. In doing so, the protestant reformation was able to spread more quickly than the catholic reformation.
As for economic issues caused by constant warfare, public funding was diverted towards military spending so that they were capable of defending their territory. This resulted in decreased spending on education and social welfare which allowed for an increase in poverty within these countries. The protestants took advantage of this by allowing local rulers to decide on religious matters instead of forcing them to convert.

Answer:
it was both good and bad for them. it was bad because they were limited to national imports and exports only. they had to rely on the little resources they had on their islands alone to survive. When they were finally ready to become unisolated and join the rest of the world, they were really far behind on their industrial era. it was good for them because it meant very little conflict with other nations.
