Henry VIII and the break with Rome W1-mt_RUPYnRkH7i-s1

  1. Declare that his marriage was invalid · Henry asked for an annulment, a decision declaring his marriage invalid so he could marry again.
  2. The Pope in Rome · The Pope in Rome led the Catholic Church. Other Christian churches existed outside his authority.
  3. True · Printing made copies that could circulate among readers. It helped ideas spread; it was not the only way people shared them.
  4. Land and rent income from the monasteries · Monastery property passed to the crown, including land and rent income. This was not a transfer of all church property or a promise of loyalty.
  5. He rejected the Pope's authority in England · Henry rejected papal authority in England. Parliament recognised him as head of the Church of England in 1534.
  6. False · Edward made Protestant changes, Mary restored Catholic authority, and Elizabeth restored a Protestant church.
  7. To keep the land they bought · The buyer wanted to keep the purchase. This gave a reason to support the changes, but it did not guarantee loyalty.
  8. Refusing the law could bring punishment · A practice allowed under an earlier ruler could become forbidden. Refusing the new law could bring penalties, though these varied.
