Answer:
With the Act of Supremacy of 1534 of the king, Henry VIII makes England a Protestant country and can divorce Catherine of Aragon to marry Anne Boleyn
Explanation:
The marriage of Henry and Anna, as well as her subsequent execution, made her a key figure in the political and religious upheavals that marked the beginning of the Reformation in England.
At the time of the meeting with his future lover in 1522, Henry VIII was married to Catherine of Aragon, who gave birth to the the only surviving child, Mary (the future Queen of England, Mary I, known as Mary the Bloody), and was in a relationship with her lovers: Bessie Blount and Maria Boleyn.
Not getting, being married to the queen, the long-awaited male heir, Henry VIII cooled down to his wife, who disappointed him, relations with constant favorites got bored. Having met Anna, the king became interested in her. Having received consent from Anna to become his wife, Henry VIII began to search for a solution to divorce Catherine of Aragon. It is likely that the idea of annulment of marriage (not divorce in the modern sense) came to Henry much earlier than meeting Anna and was motivated by his desire to have an heir to ensure the stability and legitimacy of the Tudor dynasty on the throne of England. In 1531, he asserts his supremacy over the English Church. The king stripped the church of the privilege of non-jurisdiction and the privilege of levying taxes on wills, the largest source of income for the church. Thus, the formation of the Church of England was legislatively fixed, in which all the secular and doctrinal power was concentrated in the hands of the monarch. This gave him the opportunity to invalidate the marriage with Catherine.

On this date, a century and a half ago, Confederate forces fired on Fort Sumter, on an island off the coast of South Carolina. The Confederate States of America asserted not only their right to secede but also to claim federal property within their borders. The newly inaugurated U.S. president, Abraham Lincoln, rejected both claims and refused to evacuate Sumter.
“Plainly, the central idea of secession is the essence of anarchy,” Lincoln had said in his somber inaugural address a month earlier. “A majority, held in restraint by constitutional checks and limitations and always changing easily with deliberate changes of popular opinions and sentiments, is the only true sovereign of a free people. Whoever rejects it does of necessity fly to anarchy or despotism. Unanimity is impossible; the rule of a minority, as a permanent arrangement, is wholly inadmissible; so that, rejecting the majority principle, anarchy or despotism in some form is all that is left.”
The Civil War, to Lincoln, was never technically a “war” but an illegal and unconstitutional rebellion and a fight to put down the rebellion. The details of the events leading to the firing on Fort Sumter have much to do with this attitude and with his total rejection of the possibility of secession.
By attempting to resupply Sumter, Lincoln succeeded in forcing the Confederacy to fire the first shots. Lincoln had to accept the loss of Sumter soon after. But he was successful, so to speak, in forcing the other side to start the shooting. Lincoln believed that justified the military actions that he subsequently ordered to put down the rebellion.
