Catholic AnswerNot really sure by what you mean by "rules and regulations." The Code of Canon Law, which would probably be considered the "laws of the Church" has 1,752 canons. These cover all legal matters from the canonical condition of physical and juridic persons to trials, procedures for various things, and cases for declaring nullity. The basic moral code is covered in the Ten Commandments, the Five Precepts of the Church, the Corporal Works of Mercy, etc.: all of which can be reduced to two: Love the Lord, your God with your whole heart, your whole mind, etc. and your neighbor as yourself. All of those are explicated in the Catechism of the Catholic Church which is not technically "rules and regulations."

Is the Church of England related to the Roman Catholic Church?

No. First of all, it’s just Catholic, not Roman Catholic. Roman is an epithet first commonly used in England after the protestant revolt to describe the Catholic Church. It is never used by the official Catholic Church. Secondly, the Church of England kept many of the outward appearances of the Catholic Church, but that is all.

Why does the Catholic Church develop so many rules that aren't based on the Bible?

Nearly every rule of the Catholic Church has its basis in Biblical teachings - both from the Old and the New Testaments. You might give a specific example and we will try to explain how it is Biblical. Some rulings may be based on traditions which Saint Paul holds are as important as scripture.Roman Catholic AnswerIt is important to keep in mind that Our Blessed Lord established the Church, He did NOT write the Bible. The Bible was written by, formed by, defined by, and perserved by the Catholic Church. Without the Catholic Church there simply would be no New Testament. Every writer of every book of the New Testament (including the God, who is the primary author of Scripture) was a member of the Catholic Church. The Catholic Church, in other words wrote the Bible in the first century after Our Blessed Lord's death. She did not establish which books were to be included and which excluded until the fourth century, and she has perserved the Bible inerrantly since then. The question then should be, are there any rules in the Bible that are not in the Church, and the obvious answer is No, they have one and the same source - God. Futher, the Catholic Church does not develop rules, she follows the rules that God has revealed to Her as needed for salvation, the first one, of which, is to believe in Our Blessed Lord, and to follow His Church, which is His Mystical Body and the way He has established to lead all people to heaven.
