Catholic Church had a great influence in Europe during the 1600s, as it is shown on the map. Practically most of the European territory were Catholics. Its influence reached <em>Spain, France, Portugal, Italy, Poland, Austria, England, and Ireland.</em>
During the 17th century, the Roman Catholic Church sent Missions to the Americas to spread Catholicism in the New continent in order to convert the indigenous peoples. Other Jesuits, Franciscans and Dominicans missions went to Asia and the Far East. Japan and Ethiopia were hard places to evangelize.
Stalin wanted the US and Great Britain to open a second front in France because it would divide the German military. During the time of this statement, Germany's only real military threat came from the Soviet Union. With this in mind, Hitler had the ability to put a huge number of troops on the Soviet Union/German border.
However, if the US and Great Britain planned an invasion through France, that means Hitler would have to move hundreds of thousands, maybe even millions, of troops to France. France, in relation to the Soviet Union, was over 1,000 miles away.
Forcing Germany to fight this two front war would decrease their chance of success.
