However, Henry did not become a Protestant and he continued to practice Catholicism until his death. The Reformation in England did not cause the country to become Protestant.

Why did Henry VIII make the protestant church?
Henry would have had little time for Protestants. He was aware of a reformist movement in the English Catholic Church trying to introduce theoligical elements based on the new protestant doctrine. When Henry VIII came to the throne, he was a devout Catholic and defended the Church against them. Henry VIII did not agree with their views. In 1521, Pope Leo X honoured Henry VIII with the title "Defender of Faith', because of his support for the Roman Church. When the Pope refused to grant Henry VIII an annulment from Catherine of Aragon, Henry split the English Church from the Roman church. Rather than the pope, the king would be the spiritual head of the English church. Reformest elements in the English Church at that time gave him support.King Henry VIII declared himself supreme head of a new Church of England. (The Act of Supremacy). This marked the start of centuries or religious conflict in Britain. It is a common misconception, particularly amongst Americans, that Henry VIII became a "Protestant" and turned England overnight into a Protestant country.

Edict of Nantes and what did it provide?
Edict of NantesIt was issued in 1598, by king Henry IV Bourbon of France. It was the second document (after The January Edict of 1561) issued by a French sovereign to provide religious freedom in the country. It was a consequence of the long-lasting religious conflicts in France between Catholics and Huguenots (other name for Calvinists), situated mainly in Southern France. King Henry IV succeeded Henry III Valois and his infamous mother Catherine de Medici. Henry IV was one of the most prominent leaders of the Protestant opposition in France, but had to convert to Catholicism (for the second time in his life) in order to inherit the throne. The Edict of Nantes was one of the first things that he did as a king, and, basically, it allowed for the Protestants across the land to hold on to the cities that they had turned into their strongholds, while Catholics did the same, too. This was a compromise and angered many, Catholics because they could not get rid of the "heresy" among their lands, and Protestants because they could not succeed in reforming France once and for all.
Did Catherine of Arangon want to marry Henry the VIII?

Why was Henry a great king?
It depends on which Henry you mean. III was pretty good, with caveats. V had great potential, but died before it could really come to fruition. VIII was instrumental in the Protestant Reformation, but was a horrible human being. Please, be more specific.
What were Henrys VII reigious belifes and why did they change?
Henry VIII was a Roman catholic, but changed the church to Protestant for 4 main reasons, love, power, money and religion, so Henry VII must have been Roman Catholic at the end of his reign. If he changed the religion, it was probably because of the preasure put on hime by the Romans. However, I thought that Henry VIII changed the church first, and Henry VII didn't. Just in case you made a typing error, Henry VIII changed the church to divorce Catherine of Aragon and marry Anne bolynn, which the church wouldn't allow. He also needed the money he would make from church taxes and selling the land previosly owned by the monastrys to pay for his wars in France. They also owned beautiful treasures of gold and silver which Henry could sell. Henry thought that the Pope in Rome had too much power over England, changing the church would lessen this. He would become popular with the protestants, and hold the power of the church himself. Anne Bolynn came from a protestant family, and changing the church would please her and her family. Sorry if I am wrong and Henry VII did change the church
