Henry VIII was responsible for numerous changes within England. His most famous was establishing the foundations for the Church of England, with the monarch as supreme leader not the Pope. However although Henry changed England's relationship with the Papacy and the Catholic faith, he remained a devout Catholic until he died. As well as this, he was responsible for the dissolution of the monasteries, creating the Union between England and Wales and being one of the founders of the Royal Navy.
