Christianity has been alive for just over 2000 years. In that time several splits have occurred with the church. Some with that left seeking radical changes, others like the Church of England, that were just looking for leadership change. In 1517, the Church of England was formed when King Henry VIII severed ties between the Vatican and himself. The King declared himself the Head of the Church of England and appointed the Archbishop of Canterbury as leader[akin to the Catholic Pope] of the Church.
For those familiar with both Churches, you know that there is very little difference between the two; or was until about the last 20 years. Most of the prayers are the same, the order of the service the same, even the belief is Saints the same. Remember, I am talking Protestants here and only Protestants, not Baptists or Lutherans
