controlled 1/3 of good land in England)

and asked for large tithe (tax) on

England’s treasury

Wanted divorce from wife because

she could not bear him a male child;

Pope refused

Henry was furious and asked

Parliament to declare Act of Succession

in 1534 – made Church of England

(Anglican Church)

ANGLICANISM

ideas of Catholic Church, but….

Monarch of England would be

ultimate authority, not Pope

bishops and priests
