Question

a
Elizabeth I
b
Victoria
c
Catherine
d
Mary

Answer 1

a . Elizabeth I .

Step-by-step explanation:

The Anglican Church of England is an established church that gave full authority to the monarch as the head of the church and society. Moreover, it also acts as the governing body for all issues.

The Church of England was first established by Henry VIII after he broke ties with the Pope over the rules that prevent him from divorcing his wife Catherine of Aragon. He wanted to remarry in need of a male heir, which is why he wanted the divorce. But the strict Catholic belief prevents him from ding such acts. After his death, Catholicism briefly returned under the rule of Mary, half-sister of Edward VI in 1553. However, by 1558, the Church of England was revived after Queen Elizabeth came to the throne.

Thus, the correct answer is option a.
