The Church of England evolved from two religious schisms in Britain. The first began when Henry VIII wanted to get rid of his current wife to marry his mistress, and the Pope would not allow it. As a result, he distanced Britain from papal authority, and became the head of the Church of England. The second schism occurred after the death of his Catholic daughter, Mary I, and the ascension to the throne of his Protestant daughter, Elizabeth I. She firmly established the Church of England and served as head of the Church.
