I believe the Anglican church was founded after a discussion:
A king wanted to divorce his wife and marry his 'mistress'. Only one person wanted to do that and that was the Archbisshop of Canterbury (Cranmer I believe). They founded the Act Of Supremacy which says that the king is the supreme head in church, right under God, as long as the commandments of God allow it.
It did not become the state religion then, but after the Glorious Revolution.
Watch out: officially the Anglican Church is Catholic but they see themselves more as a combination between Catholic and Protestant.
I hope this is enough for you :-)
