Besides a recovery of the true gospel...
It seems that the start of getting people and nations to not be so reliant on a central authority (the Pope) and start governing for themselves. Yes, there were still monarchies, but the trend toward self-governance and democracy was really pushed forward and made possible by the Reformation.
To add to that, there were even cases where a push for religious reform led directly to political reform, like the English Civil War.
