If you mean King Henry VIII of England he backed the Anglican church and shut down all of the Catholic churches and monasteries and such and confiscated all of their monies and lands which were substantial.

If you mean another Henry I don't know.

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

Did Henry VIII break with Rome because he wanted more love?

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.
