He broke with the rest of the Catholic Church and, in effect, established the Church of England. Missionaries from this church accompanied many of the British explorers of the 18th and 19th centuries and planted what has become known as Anglicanism. The majority of Anglicans now live outside of England. Anglicanism has had a significant effect on former British colonies, and thus on the world.

King Henry VIII took power away from the Catholic Church which impacted the role of the Church in society for centuries to come. Henry wanted to take power away from the Pope by creating the Church of England which would allow him to divorce his first wife, Catherine of Aragon. This was a blow to power that the Church had never seen before, and many monarchs and leaders all over the world followed in England's footsteps in the years to come and slowly took power away from the Church and gave more power to the state.
