Depending on the author, the Mexican Catholic Church was viewed as a co-conspirator of the coup d'etat against President Francisco Madero (who was killed by the General Victoriano Huerta in 1913, starting the second stage of the Mexican Revolution) or as an institution that worked outside of political events and even denounced Huerta's actions in the international press.
In any case, most of the revolutionaries (Carranza, Zapata, Villa, Obregon) were anti-cleric, because for more than 30 years, during president Porfirio Diaz dictatorial regime, the Catholic church became part of the conservative forces that led the country with an iron fist, at the expense of human rights.
This anti-clericalism became part of the core values of the revolution, and became part of the 1917 Constitution. It also triggered the reaction of several fundamentalist factions within the Catholic Church, resulting in the Cristero War (1926-1929) and some 250,000 dead. Note nowadays, Cristeros would be seen as the Catholic equivalent of the Taliban insurgency -- i.e. performing terrorist acts, and kidnapping and killing government agents, such as rural teachers in often grisly ways.

Henry the VIII did NOT separate the Church of England from the Catholic Church, he separated the Catholic Church IN Englandfrom the rest of the Catholic Church and formed the Church OF England. Big difference, before Henry VIII there was no Church OF England, only the Catholic Church IN England.

Frank HendersonIn 1534 King Henry VIII decreed that he was not only sovereign -- the ruler -- of the country but also supreme head of the church in England. In other words, he now took the place of the pope, who had no further role to play in England. Henry's claim to supremacy was made both legally and politically, but also liturgically.

Actually, there is no Roman Catholic Church. 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..That being said, the answer to your question is the Catholic Church's role in "all of this" is everything. God spoke and created the world (read Genesis 1:3) and His Word is Our Blessed Lord, Jesus Christ (read John 1:1-3). Now, the Catholic Church IS Jesus Christ, (read Acts 9:1-5, 1 Cor 12:12-14)..So the short answer to your question is that the Catholic Church's role is EVERYTHING, it is the only meaning that anyone's life in this world has, and without the Catholic Church - which is the Word of God: Jesus Christ's mystical Body - then nothing has any meaning.
