King Henry the VIII established the Church of England in 1534 when parliament declared that the king was the supreme head of the church. He wanted to establish it because he wanted a divorce but the pope wouldn't grant it but if he was the head of the church he could grant it himself, he was also bankrupt and wanted to take the monasteries, gold and various other riches for himself. A few notes, Henry VIII created the Church of England, commonly known as the Anglican Church, NOT the Church IN England, that would have been the Catholic Church from very early up until he seized control of all the Churches from the Catholic Church. Also, Henry did not create the protestant church - there actually is no "protestant" church, there are, as of 2013 over 33,000 churches which can be called protestant and Henry only created the Anglican one of those.
