There's an alternate history novel (I haven't read it, I've only read the premise) called Pavane in a timeline where Catholicism still has strong influence in the world, due to Protestantism being wiped out after the assassination of Queen Elizabeth in 1588 and the wars resulting in its aftermath. There's a Wikipedia article about it if you're interested, not sure how historically accurate or plausible it would be.
