Question

How did England become Protestant?

Answer 1

In 1532 I guess, he wanted to divorce his wife, Catherine of Aragon. When Pope Clement VII refused to agree or to allow the divorce, then Henry VIII planned or decided to separate the entire country of England, from the Roman Catholic Church because the Pop didn't agree for them to divorce.

To me it seemed weird he did that, but understandable ;)

Answer 2
