>Дело было не только в Генрихе, а в том что они (Catholic Church) — грабили Англию. Тогда в те времена, Церковь была — все. Все богатство было сосредоточенно там. Как и наука и образование (как ни странно). Генрих взял все Католическое богатсво в руки Английского Монарха. Потом начался экономический рассвет Англии.

> Henry wanted a boy to inherit the throne. He believed that he needed a new wife to have his son. At the time, Henry and most English people belonged to the Roman Catholic Church. However, in 1527 the pope (the leader of the Roman Catholic Church) refused to allow Henry to end his marriage to Catherine. Henry therefore cut all ties to the church and placed himself in charge of the new Church of England, or Anglican church. Henry severely punished those who continued to practice the Catholic faith.
