Religious orders were formed that aimed to build allegiance to Rome and the papacy, and to educate people in Catholic teaching.  The Society of Jesus, known as the Jesuits for short, was a key order of this sort.  The order was founded by Ignatius of Loyola in 1534, along with Francis Xavier and several others.  

The Council of Trent served to reform some abuses that were acknowledged by the Catholic Church. For instance, the Council of Trent put a stop to the selling of indulgences. But more than anything, the meeting of Roman Catholic church leaders reasserted the full authority of Roman power and doctrine in opposition to the Protestant threat.  The Council of Trent held meetings over a span of years from 1545 to 1563.  

 

The Roman Inquisition was founded in 1542 to act as an investigative body regarding threats to Rome's teachings.  About a century later, Galileo would be one of the most famous persons tried by the Roman Inquisition. The efforts of the Roman Catholic Church in the 16th century have continued to impact both Catholicism and Protestantism. Faithful Catholics see the "Catholic Reformation" (which included the items described above) as a healthy resurgence of Rome's spiritual authority. Protestants have tended to see Rome's efforts as oppressive, convincing them that breaking off relationships with Rome was the right thing to do. There have been some efforts in recent history to build ecumenical ties between Catholics and Protestants, but mostly the two sides have continued to pursue their separate missions apart from one another.

In conclusion, The Roman Catholic Church responded to the spread of Protestantism in the 16th century in several ways, intending to strengthen its own stance and its hold on church power.

The united states pursued an isolationist foreign policy for its first 150 years as a nation. For what reasons was this approach
Nina [5.8K]

Since the Revolutionary War, the United States uses diplomacy to gain allies. Because Great Britain had the military advantage, in November 1775, Congress established the Committee of Secret Correspondence to “correspond with friends” . The objective was to retain France and Spain' support (enemies of Great Britain) for independence. Diplomacy was required to end the war. Franklin, John Adams and John Jay (the Peace Commission) negotiated peace In June 1781, and so they reached agreement with the British on November 30, 1782.

After George Washington became president in 1789, in the two terms of his presidency he agreeded that  isolation and neutrality were the most beneficial course for the United States, in his inaugural address he spoke of "Peace, commerce and honest friendship with all nations, entangling alliances with none."  Before that, in 1781, what today we call Department of State was called Office of Foreign Affairs, both Robert R. Livingston and  John Jay ,the first two Secretaries found frustrating the task, in whic they had so little autonomy. The new Constitution of 1789 allotted significantly more responsibility for foreign affairs to the Federal Government.

Despite some deficits in the Department of State, in the first years of the Republic significant triumphs in foreign affairs occured such as the Jay Treaty (1794) and the Pinckney Treaty (1795) regularized relations with England and Spain.

But the reason why the foreign policy was isolationist was that the very foundation of the U.S had in it's principles the idea of avoinding war in the future generations; the world had a different conjecture of war that would end in the 30's. By staying idle to the growing fascim in Europe, (the Johnson Act-1934 and the Neutrality acts -1935 prevented economic or military aid to any country involved in the disputes that were to escalate into World War II) , America  encouraged the British in their policy of appeasement and contributed to French paralysis in the face of the growing threat posed by Nazi Germany . After World War II with the creation of the United Nations, isolationism was no longer an option specially to oppose communist expansion-East and West . Negotiating and maintaining  peace was the practical responsibility of the new U.N. Security Council, made up of the United States, Great Britain, France, the Soviet Union, and China.
