    Tronstridighetene (Grevefeiden) ender med at Christian 3 blir konge. Han fengsler de katolske biskopene og tvinger igjennom reformasjonen, noe som bl.a. innebærer at mesteparten av kirkens eiendommer blir overtatt av kongen. Samtidig undertegner han håndfestningen som bestemte at Norge skulle opphøre å være et eget kongerike.

    Siden reformasjonen i 1536 har luthersk kristendom vært den dominerende religionen i Norge. Inntil dissenterloven ble vedtatt i 1845 var det forbudt for nordmenn å melde seg ut av statskirken og ikke-kristne trossamfunn fikk ikke lov til å organisere seg før i 1891. I dag er samfunnet blitt mer og mer sekularisert og et flertall anser seg ikke som religiøse.
