Frederick (Protestant) and attempted Charles to Maria (Catholic Infanta) then

Catholic, Infanta to be allowed public Catholic service and James may become
Catholic

Spanish Match

insufficient funds

opinion was supportive of English intervention to help Frederick. MPs urged James
to pursue a Protestant marriage for Charles. MPs wanted a naval war against Spain

Frederick the Palatinate back. It also may make the Palatinate one of the marriage
