Hm. I wasn't aware that Catholicism had been defeated.
Reminds me of that little ditty: Nietzsche: God is dead. God: Nietzsche is dead.
I dated a girl from Gothenburg once. Even wrote her an entire letter in Swedish (with the help of a tourist's translation guide). She said it was quite a hoot.

To begin with, Catholicism has, of course, not been defeated in the sense "eradicated from the face of the Earth".
Through the outcome of the Thirty Years' War it was once and for all driven away from Northern Europe.
Apart from hindering Russia from reaching the Seven Seas, this is one of the most notable achievements of the "tiny" nation of Sweden.
Whatever the purpose, I admire you for trying to express yourself properly in swedish, fellow FReeper!
