money and Henry wanted a divorce Henry didn't want a divorce, he wanted an annulment, something different! Neither did he break away, Henry followed the teaching of the early church and told the pope he had no authority in England. This was perfectly true. For ttrad Catholics papal authority is limited!
To get money to finance the war with France. He wanted to be known as a warrior kimg
The Break With Rome was caused as Henry VIII wanted a Son to take to the heir after him. His wife at the time couldn't give birth and he asked the Pope for a divorce, he refused and Henry was not happy so he sacked the Pope and the newly appointed Arch Bishop of Canterbury gave Henry a divorce. * The original religion was Catholic and Henry changed it to Protestant. * Another reason for the Break with Rome was that the monasteries were rich and Henry wanted there money as he had spent a lot on wars.
Henry changed religion because he wanted money,power and divorce. he made him self head of the church instead of the pope.
yes he spended half of his money of parties all because he wanted to show off to people how rich he was, but later on he didnt have enough money.
The catholic monestaries were very wealthy, most containing gold crusifixes bejeweled with rubies and emeralds, old valuable texts, and money. By this time in history Henry was very-but not notably-poor. His father never spent more than he had to and was very greedy with his wealth. Henry wanted fun, and fun costs alot of money. Henry ate fine food, listened to lovely music, wore nice clothes, and had lots of entertainment. He spent alot of his fathers money and now he needed to find a way to make some. Though not all the monestaries were corupt some were. Henry wanted to take their wealth and move it to his fund. just as a note, Anne Boleyn-Henry's wife at the time-greatly apposed the moving of the money. she wanted the corupt monestaries closed down but they money and resources be used to works of charity.
