took place.
You MUST use complete sentences in your answer.

Answer 1

Henry VIII was the originator of the church of England, split with the Roman  Church of Catholicism when the priest refused to cancel his wedding to Aragon's Catherine.

Explanation:

Henry tried slightly to replace the priest as the head of the English church—not to improve it on the policies adopted by Baptist reformers. The split with Rome was caused by a group of  Parliament act established within 1532 and 1534, amid them the 1534 named as  Supremacy act, which stated that the Supreme Head on ground of the England church was Henry.
