Scenarios about 'catholic persecution'

The systematic discrimination, harassment, and violence directed against Catholics due to their religious beliefs, occurring in various historical contexts. Catholic persecution was particularly intense during the English Reformation, French Revolution, and in certain Protestant-dominated societies, where Catholics faced legal restrictions, property confiscation, imprisonment, and sometimes execution. These historical episodes of religious intolerance have been explored in alternate history scenarios examining different outcomes of religious conflicts or imagining societies where Catholic-Protestant power dynamics developed differently.
