Who established the Church of England?

Correct Answer: Henry VIII

Henry VIII established the Church of England after the Pope refused to annul his marriage to Catherine of Aragon.

In this new church, the king — not the Pope — held the authority to appoint bishops and determine how people should worship, marking the beginning of the Reformation in England.
