At first, King Henry VIII loves the Catholic Church and hates Protestantism

At first, King Henry VIII loves the Catholic Church and hates Protestantism

Henry is married to Catherine of Aragon, cousin of Holy Roman

Emperor Charles V

But she only bore him a daughter, Mary, and no

son!

Plus, Henry already has a crush on Anne Boleyn, and wants to

marry her so he can have a son, but divorce is forbidden

by the Church

So Henry VIII asks the Pope in Rome to “annul” his first marriage, which the Pope

sometimes did for Kings, but Pope said NO WAY! (Why?)

So Henry VIII called on Parliament to pass laws

splitting England from the Catholic Church and making HENRY head of the Church of

England

…and then Henry and Anne lived happily ever…

…Actually, Anne Boleyn also bore him a daughter, Elizabeth,

so he had Anne Boleyn beheaded so he could marry a

third wife, Jane Seymour

Jane was smart enough to have a son, Edward. He had three more wives after her, but no

more kids.

Since the Church of England broke away for secular

reasons, they kept most Catholic practices

But when Henry died, 9 year old Edward became King, and until he died at 15, moved the

Church much farther into Protestant ideas

But then Edward died and his sister Mary took over, and

switched everything back to Catholicism. Hundreds of

Protestants were burned at the stake, which is why she was

called “Bloody Mary.”

But when Mary died, Elizabeth became Queen and established a compromise

between Protestant and Catholic practices called the Elizabethan

Settlement
