I mean, capitalism dialectically emerged alongside Protestantism, so it’s not surprising that the most developed capitalist economies might tend towards Protestant, and least in historical backgrounds. Two of those states (UK and Holland) created vast settler colonial empires. I only think this is meaningful in understanding how Protestantism and capitalism emerged together.
