Describe the succession of the crown of the Holy Roman Emperor in the 1550s

During his reign as Holy Roman Emperor, Charles V (a member of the House of Habsburg) attempted to impose imperial hegemony over much of Europe, a move marked by his support of Catholicism and the Roman Church, and his fight against the Reformation; however,  the wars among different kingdoms and principalities and the spread of Protestantism in Germany were an obstacle for the realization of those ambitious goals.

Charles V accepted the Peace of Augsburg in 1555, what provided a political and legal basis for the separation of German states along religious lines, Catholic and Protestants. He abdicated in 1556 and his succcesor was Rudolf I of Habsburg. Until its final days in the 19th century, the empire was merely a loose federation of German Catholic principalities and kingdoms (Protestant states did not belong to it).
