What is Anglican faith church?
Within Christianity there are various churches, or 'traditions', such as the Roman Catholic Church and the Greek Orthodox Church. These are often called 'denominations'. One of these church traditions is called 'Anglican'. This word means 'English' and the 'Anglican Church' was originally another name for the Church of England but is now also often used for other national Anglican churches such as the Anglican Church of Canada. The various national Anglican churches belong to the worldwide Anglican Communion. In some countries, such as the United States, the national Anglican church is called the Episcopal Church and its members are often called 'Episcopalians'.
Why is the Anglican church in the US called Episcopalian and not Anglican?
The U.S.-based branch of the Anglican Communion is commonly called 'The Episcopal Church' because after the American Revolutionary War, Anglicans in the states were forced to sever ties with the Anglican Church in England or be charged with treason. 'Episcopal' is actually the word used in the English parliament to describe the Anglican Church (whereas 'Anglican' is a secondary term adopted from the Latin name of the church, ecclesia anglicana), so it wasn't a stretch for American-Anglicans to begin calling themselves 'Episcopalian' to distance themselves from the enemy after the war.
Who formed anglicanism?
The Anglican Church has its roots in the separation of the Church of England from the Roman Catholic Church in the 16th century. The Holy Ghost as much as anyone I should imagine! The Anglican Church is a Communion within the Catholic Church as is both Orthodoxy and Romanism! The name Anglican first appeared in 750 in Bede's History of Britain.

When did the Anglican church originate?
A complex question! The Anglican Church is the Body of Christ, in Britain, the Catholic Church! It is not the whole of the Church, but a showing forth, a manifestation as it were! Therefore the Church originated in an Upper Room in Jerusalem, sometime after the death of Our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. [Acts. 2.] The Church arrived in Britain, it is claimed, within a short while of the above Upper Room, episode and had for its first Bishop, Aristobulos a friend of S.Paul's according to S.Dorotheus of Tyre! [303 AD.] Initially it was known as the Celtic Church, then as political control slipped from Celtic Chieftan to Saxon War Lord, the name Anglican was used, it means English! Thus we are the Catholic Church with an English face!
Is the Roman Catholic an Anglican church?
First allow me to point out: 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. Second, the Catholic Church has been around since 33 A.D., and was formed by Our Blessed Lord, Jesus Christ on St. Peter (see Matthew 16:17-19). The Anglican Church was formed out of nothing by Henry VIII in the 16th century when he wanted a divorce from his wife and the Church would not grant him one, so he took his entire nation out of the Church and formed the Anglican Church for the sole purpose of giving him a divorce, and making him head of the Church. So, no, the Catholic Church is most definitely not an Anglican Church.

In Wales, four Church of England dioceses were disestablished in 1920, subsequently becoming the Church in Wales.The question of disestablishment of the Church of England is still current, often tied with the position of the English monarch as "Supreme Governor" of the Church (see Act of Settlement 1701).
