What are facts about the Church of England?
The church of England was created when people thought the roman catholic church wasn't teaching the ways of the bible the way the lord wanted, especially Martin Luther (a catholic Priest). He nailed all the things he thought was wrong with the catholic way of teaching on the door of his church, e.g. reading the bible in Latin and encouraging indulgences. Henry VIII was the one to create the official protestant church, the C of E, however on his death bed he still declared himself a catholic. Even though Henry created the church of England, his son Edward made the most changes to the religion. He translated all the bibles into the worshippers language so that everyone could understand the bible, before this it was illegal to translate a bible and if you did you would be executed so it was a big step doing this. He also stripped the churches of colour and riches so that people could concentrate on god. 3 in ten people attend a Sunday church service each week 1.7 million people take part in a Church of England service each month

What were Henrys VII reigious belifes and why did they change?
Henry VIII was a Roman catholic, but changed the church to Protestant for 4 main reasons, love, power, money and religion, so Henry VII must have been Roman Catholic at the end of his reign. If he changed the religion, it was probably because of the preasure put on hime by the Romans. However, I thought that Henry VIII changed the church first, and Henry VII didn't. Just in case you made a typing error, Henry VIII changed the church to divorce Catherine of Aragon and marry Anne bolynn, which the church wouldn't allow. He also needed the money he would make from church taxes and selling the land previosly owned by the monastrys to pay for his wars in France. They also owned beautiful treasures of gold and silver which Henry could sell. Henry thought that the Pope in Rome had too much power over England, changing the church would lessen this. He would become popular with the protestants, and hold the power of the church himself. Anne Bolynn came from a protestant family, and changing the church would please her and her family. Sorry if I am wrong and Henry VII did change the church
