The Church of England was created as a result of the disagreement between an English King and the pope. This implies the correct answer is A.
Henry VIII created the Church of England after the disagreement between him and the pope in the 1530s.
The disagreement between Henry VII and the pope started when the Catholic Church refused to dissolve his marriage to Catherine, his first wife.
<h2>Further Explanation</h2>
Henry VII had approached the Pope to cancel his marriage to Catherine because she didn’t have a male child at the time, therefore to allow him to take another wife and have a male heir, he persuaded the catholic church to grant the annulment.
However, for the king to have his way, he passed the Act of supremacy, the Act of succession and declared himself as the supreme head of the Church of England.
The Church of England is created as a church of the State in England and it is made of up of two provinces, which include
- The Canterbury located in the south of England
- The York located in the North of England
The two provinces are headed by a primate and the Church of England is also regarded as the original church of the Anglican communion which is present in over 160 different countries.
