Best Answer

Yes.

Henry VIII virtually banned it and created the Anglican Church in its place.

Thank you, I didn't know that?

But you don't give us any information regarding the break as to why or wherefore? What were the instruments of separation,? Was it Henry himself who broke away, Parliament or Convocation? Just when did this happen? When Henry's son and his elder daughter were on the throne, the English Church was in communion with Rome, indeed it was for some forty years or more before the break came, why was that?

Or could it be that you just don't know!

Who advised Henry VIII to break from the catholic church?

Personally, I think his chief adviser on this issue was Satan. Up until then he had been a defender of the Catholic faith. It was only when he wouldn't listen to lawful authority and decided that he knew best what he needed (which sounds like everyone of us when we decide to sin instead of following God) that he sought a way to break the Church in England away from the Catholic Church.

Why would people think the break with the Roman Catholic Church would be good?

There is no "Roman" Catholic Church, the Roman was added as a slur against the Catholic Church in England after the protestant revolt. Why anyone would think breaking with the Church would be a good thing is a very puzzling matter, most of them were so enamored of their personal sin that they made up a Church that accepted them as they were, so that they didn't have to change their behavior as the Christian Church as always preached.

How was the Church of England?

You need to read up on Henry the Eighth. In very simplistic terms, he created the Anglican church as a replacement to the Catholic Church, on the pretext that he wanted a divorce from his wife Catherine, whereas the Catholic Pope denied the request.
