The Anabaptists began when some German Princes wanted to manage the marriages in their kingdoms without papal interference. Although they agreed with many reform policies, they refused to be called Protestants. Neither the Protestants nor the Catholics wanted a connection to them either.

Are Catholics one of the same as Protestants?
No, Catholics are members of the Christian Church as established by Our Blessed Lord, Jesus Christ in 33 A.D. on St. Peter (see Matthew 16:17-19), which He guaranteed until the end of the world, and send the Holy Spirit to guide always. Protestants are members of various heretical sects which developed from various dissent ex-priests (Knox, Luther, etc.) who left the Church to found their own faiths, or in the case of England, by a King, who wanted a church which agreed with him on whatever he chose to accept as right. Which, come to think of it, goes for all the other protestants too, they threw out the books of the Bible that they didn't agree with and interpreted the rest their own way, or ignored them (the letter of St. James), etc.

Why did Henry VIII and Catherine of Aragon's divorce have a split in Catholics and protestants?
Because divorce is not permitted in the Church. King Henry VIII, not being satisfied with the daughter that his wife had given him, decided that he needed a new wife, so he sought an annulment (which is NOT a divorce, it is a decree that no valid marriage ever occurred). This was patently ridiculous as he had previously obtained papal permission to marry Catherine of Aragon in the first place, so, of course, it was denied. As Henry couldn't obtain an annulment, his brilliant solution was to leave the Church and found his own Church which would do whatever he wanted - and, bingo, you have the protestant revolt in England. It was not a "split" between Catholics and protestants, it was the King making Catholicism illegal and making up his own Church and requiring that everyone go to it-big difference.
