How and why did England become a Protestant country?
What will be an ideal response?
Answer: The ideal answer should include:
1. Popular anticlericalism helped spark religious reformation in England.
2. The opening for the Protestant Reformation in England was created by Henry VIII’s desire to
annul his marriage to Catherine of Aragon.
3. When the pope refused to grant an annulment, Henry VIII set the process in motion of breaking with Rome.
4. Beyond breaking with the papacy, Henry showed little enthusiasm for theological change.
5. The split with Rome, however, opened the door to increasingly radical religious ideas.
