Best Answer

The reformation spurred four branches, Lutheran, Restorationism, Anglican, and Calvinism/Reformed/Presbyterian. The last three created several branches.

Calvinism/Reformed/Presbyterian branched off into Anabaptist which later split into Baptist, Methodist, and Adventist.

Anglicanism, aka Church of England, also gave rise to Episcopalian.

Restorationism gave rise to Pentacostalism.
