Why did Henry VIII make the protestant church?

Henry would have had little time for Protestants. He was aware of a reformist movement in the English Catholic Church trying to introduce theoligical elements based on the new protestant doctrine.

When Henry VIII came to the throne, he was a devout Catholic and defended the Church against them. Henry VIII did not agree with their views. In 1521, Pope Leo X honoured Henry VIII with the title "Defender of Faith', because of his support for the Roman Church. When the Pope refused to grant Henry VIII an annulment from Catherine of Aragon, Henry split the English Church from the Roman church. Rather than the pope, the king would be the spiritual head of the English church.

Reformest elements in the English Church at that time gave him support.King Henry VIII declared himself supreme head of a new Church of England. (The Act of Supremacy). This marked the start of centuries or religious conflict in Britain. It is a common misconception, particularly amongst Americans, that Henry VIII became a "Protestant" and turned England overnight into a Protestant country.

Henry VIII. was the founder of the Anglican Church and the Royal Navy. When he mounted the throne England had 3 ill-armed ships, when he died a fleet of 70 well-armed ships was at service. He also built the first tennis court at Hampton Court near London which is still operative.

Henry was seduced by his father-in-law Fernando V. of Spain to join the 1511-1515 war against France, in 1513 Henry won the Battle of Guinegate and defeated James IV. of Scotland at Flodden. Influenced by Cardinal Woolsey he introduced a balance policy between Emperor Charles V. and France which he fought again in 1522-1525 and in 1543-1546 when Henry could win Boulogne. Woolsey was dismissed in 1529 and succeeded by Sir Thomas More and - after More's execution in 1535 - by Thomas Cromwell who proved to be a willing tool of the royal despotism. The 1538 papal ban bull determined Henry VIII. to align his country's religion to the German Protestantism.
