Answer:

The Anglican Church in England

Step-by-step explanation:

Religious Reformation was a process of opposition to the Catholic Church that took place in various regions of the European continent. While in other regions of Europe the Protestant Reformation was led by religious citizens, in England it was initiated by the king himself, Henry VIII. The reason that led Henry VIII to leave the Catholic Church was the non-acceptance of his divorce application sent to Pope Clement VI. The king insisted and divorced without the pope's permission and was excommunicated.

After Henry VIII was excommunicated, the Act of Supremacy was decreed in England, whereby the English sovereign became the supreme head of the Church of England. With this measure, the so-called Anglican Church was created.
