AnswerThere were several issues over which the Protestants and Catholics were in dispute, but the factor common to almost all issues was that the Protestants felt that the Catholic Church had become corrupt.

Is the Episcopalian church practice closest to Catholic church?
The Episcopal church, as we know it today, was founded by Henry VIII of England, and later codified and established by his daughter, Elizabeth I. At that time, the sacraments that they retained, the Bishops, Priests, etc. were all based on the Catholic church in England. As a matter of fact, to a large extent that WERE the Catholic priests and Bishops of England who thought it more expedient to convert than lose their heads. The Book of Common Prayer was pretty much a translation of the Mass with the more "Popish" doctrines removed and it was still celebrated in Catholic churches which Henry simply took from the Catholic Church. Other Catholic churches (other than Roman Catholic) have different traditions, like the Eastern rites, etc. The closet in practice to the Roman church would be the Episcopal.
