King Henry was married to Catherine of Aragon. He falls in love with Anne Boleyn and wants to marry her. He asks the pope to grant him a divorce, but the pope refuses because it was against the Catholic Church to get a divorce. After 7 years, Henry declares that the pope had no power over him and the pope excommunicates him. In 1534, Henry has parliament declare him the head of a new church, the Church of England, or the Anglican Church. This was a Protestant Church.
