Henry the VIII made many changes during his rule. Mainly he is known for separating the English Church from the pope during the English Reformation, where England became a protestant rather than catholic. In England this meant many people had to choose between allegience to their King or their Religion. In addition many people began to question the church, politics and other established systems.
King Henry VIII changed the world by creating a new Church by splitting away from the Catholic Chutch in his quest to get a son. He created the Anglican Church, or Church of England, and annulled his marriage. He had two daughters, Mary and Elizabeth, and one son, Edward. Elizabeth would go on to become Queen Elizabeth I of England.
