Page "Calvinism" Paragraph 4
from
Wikipedia
Although much of Calvin's practice was in Geneva, his publications spread his ideas of a " correctly " reformed church to many parts of Europe.
Calvinism became the theological system of the majority in Scotland ( see John Knox ), the Netherlands, with men such as William Ames, T J Frelinghuysen and Wilhelmus à Brakel and parts of Germany ( especially those adjacent to the Netherlands ) with the likes of Olevianus and his colleague Zacharias Ursinus.
Calvinism gained some popularity in Scandinavia, especially Sweden, but was rejected in favor of Lutheranism after the synod of Uppsala in 1593.
