I don't know about Henry VII establishing a church, but Henry VIII was excommunicated from the Roman Catholic church and subsequently the Church of England was established. Henry wanted a divorce from Katherine of Aragon so that he could marry Anne Boleyn. This caused a lot of problems, not least of which was the question of divorce being, well, out of the question.

What caused many Europeans to break away from the Catholic Church?

In most of the cases, they broke away from the Catholic Church because their princes left them no choice.

However, it just goes to show that with most people their religion doesn't go down very far.
