In Seventeenth century England, Queen Elizabeth had just died. England was totally Protestant for they had succeeded in breaking away from the Catholic Church. They established the Protestant Church and everyone was expected to attend this new church. Catholics that refused to attend the church were fined, their lands confiscated, and they were often arrested if caught holding Mass or participating in Catholic services. This situation created discord among the Catholics who refused to attend the new church.
