Help: Hello I wanted some help with this. Could you get me started on a third paragraph? I have already got the causes and events, but I still need the effects.

My Paragraph:
Emperor Matthias was sick and dying. He had no heirs, and his cousin Ferdinand was the most likely candidate for emperor. In 1618 Emperor Matthias died; leaving the vote up, for emperor of Germany, to three Lutherans and four Catholics. The Lutherans despised Ferdidnand as he would most likely bring back Catholicism to Germany. On the 23rd of May 1618 the Protestants of Prauge revolted, they siezed the two Hapsburg governers and threw them out a high window. After the Defenestration of Prague, the Protestant elect a new emperor, Fredrick of Palatinate. Before the news arrived that the protestants elected a new emperor, Ferdinand was made Holy Roman Emperor.

War Between the two Emperors had begun. After years of bloodshed, Ferdinand had defeated most of the Lutherans. Ferdinand issued the Edict of Restitution which stated, "Protestants must restore all Church property that they had seized in the Peace of Augsburg (1555). The Lutherans were to be allowed freedom of worship, but not the Calvinist or other Protestants." But peace was short, Richeliue had been scheming with the Protestant Swedish King; Gustavus Adolphus, who despised Emperor Ferdinand. In 1631 Gustavus marched into northern Germany. After much more death and destruction Gustavus was killed, his army was later defeated and there was peace.
