Answer:

In the Middle Ages, the Catholic church was the most powerful socio-political body there was and as a result, controlled a lot of governments.

With the Protestant and Catholic Reformations, things changed. The countries of Europe saw their populations support either one or the other and so the rulers generally followed the denominations that would give them the most influence.

It also led to a decrease in the power wielded by the Catholic Church as the followers of the various denominations vied for control of their countries.

The Reformation also shaped colonial expansion in no small part as the European powers tried to spread their denominations to areas around the world so that their denomination would become the most followed as they believed this to be their responsibility.

The Spanish for instance, enforced Catholicism in all the areas they controlled and the British gave preference to Protestant movements.

Why were european countries able to conquer so much of the world

stepan [7]

Europe, has more advances in technology in warfare, transportations. Also their governments are strong and stable due to ones careful rule.
But the real reason for European dominant is because they really and I mean really focus on their militaristic aspect as which they relied on for stability, conquest, and glory because thousands of years, Kings and some Queens are tought the ways of war and how war can give more than just territory and as a matter of fact Kings had trained themselves in Europe for milania, so not just did Kings evolve but the technology to fight among themselves were drastically improved as well.
