Best Answer

He started the Church of England, or the Anglican Church (known as the Episcopal Church in the USA). He broke away from the Roman Catholic Church, and reformed the church in England, where the Pope was no longer the head of the church but the Crown or King (or Queen) was the absolute supreme head of the church. This period is often referred to as the reformation.
