history through the characters
In our investigation through the history of the British conflicts, which occurred between the church and the state, we have taken, as reference points, various characters who have left a great wound between these 2 powers. With the passage of time we will see how the region of Britain has passed from the church of Rome to its characteristic Anglican church, not forgetting the abuses and battles that these characters have had.

Henry II and Thomas Becket
During the reign of Henry II (1154-1189) Thomas Becket was proclaimed by the king himself Archbishop of Caterbury. The latter was a clergyman of the minor orders who became a close friend of Henry II: he helped him in the battle of France. The two separated due to the king's plan which envisioned being able to have a system law for the whole country but the church did not agree. This struggle continued throughout the middle ages, culminating in the killing with henry's permission, of thomas becket.

Hanry VIII
Henry VIII (1509-1547) belonged to the Tudor dynasty. He married Catherine of Aragon with special permission. But the main event of Henry VIII's reign was the break with Rome and the establishment of the Anglican church. As a young king, Henry defended the church against the new ideas of Martin Luther in Germany and John Calvin in Geneva. Henry VIII wanted to divorce Catherine of Aragon but the Pope refused: the king broke with Rome and divorced Catherine. He will later remarry in 1533 with Anna Boleyn and they will have a daughter named Elizabeth.

Mary Tudor aka Bloody Mary
Mary the Tudor was the daughter of Henry VIII and Catherine of Aragon. Her reign began in 1553 and ended in 1558. She was a devout Catholic, in fact she wanted to bring Catholicism back to England. The restoration of Catholicism affected much of the nobility, many families had become wealthy as a result of the Reformation, having gained land from the dissolved monasteries, convents and friaries. However, most of the common people were Catholics. Mary Tudor also reintroduced Latin mass and the old ceremones. She burned alive more than 300 protestants and for this she was called bloody mary

Elizabeth I
Elizabeth I was the Queen of England and Ireland and, at the time, she was the daughter of Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn. Her politics line was more moderate than her father and half-siblings had been. Her religion was very interesting: she was a protestant, but kept catholic symbols. Elizabeth was very fortunate that many bishoprics were vacant at the time, including the Archbishopric of Canterbury. This enabled supporters amongst peers to outvote the bishops and conservative peers.
