"Lutheran princes challenged the Holy Roman Emperor, who was Catholic."
Brief explanation: The war (1618–1648) began inside the Holy Roman Empire when Protestant princes—chiefly in Bohemia and other German states—rebelled against the Catholic Habsburg emperor (Ferdinand II) after he tried to reassert Catholic authority and limit Protestant rights (the immediate trigger was the Defenestration of Prague in 1618). The conflict later widened into a general European war.
