Answer 1

Henry VIII broke away from Rome and started the Church of England to annul his marriage to Katharine of Aragon

Step-by-step explanation:

Henry VIII broke away from Rome and started his own Church of England to annul his marriage to Katharine of Aragon. Katharine of Aragon was unable to produce a male heir, and Henry VIII wanted to marry Anne Boleyn in the hopes of having a son. However, the Catholic Church did not grant annulment easily. By creating the Church of England, Henry VIII had the power to grant his own annulment and marry Anne Boleyn.
