Answer:
stop the spread of communism
Explanation:
While the teachings of Reform leaders like Ulrich Zwingli and John Calvin arose largely from disputes with Catholic sacramental teachings, the support they enjoyed among the Swiss cantons had more to do with local politics than with doctrinal matters.
There was a rapidly-growing movement toward consolidation of the city-states into nations at the time, and actions on BOTH sides of the split (Catholic and Protestant) were influenced by practical considerations related to power, property, and prestige. The English church, for example, tore away so that Henry VIII could annul his marriage to Catherine of Aragon (a marriage which the pope had made extraordinary moves to permit). And the pope refused grant the annulment, both to save face and to avoid alienating Charles V who was the Holy Roman Emperor.
So as you can see from even just these few examples, the spread of the protestant religion had nothing at all to do with politics.
The steppe and forest-steppe of Ukraine and southern Russia is good agricultural land, but it was traditionally held by pastoral nomads. Any state that could drive off the nomads and fill the land with tax-paying peasants would expand its power enormously. During the period 1500–1800, this region was taken under Russian control.

In the absence of a good map, locations will be given as approximately so many kilometers directly south of Moscow, and then so many kilometers east or west of that line. Thus, Kiev is about 600 south and 500 west, while Perekop at the head of the Crimean peninsula is 1100s and 250w. For contrast, France is not quite 1,000 kilometers from north to south and Moscow is about 1,000 kilometers south of the White Sea. Since these numbers are estimates, they should not be cited or copied.
