25 janv. 1533 - Since Catherine couldn't give him a son, Henry VIII married Anne Boleyn. Divorces (anulment) were not allowed, Henry tried to find a biblical reason (he said he felt awful about marrying his brother's wife); this was "The Great Matter". Of course, the Pope said no because it was a silly argument. That didn't work, he broke from Rome, and changed the country from Catholic to Protestant. He created the Anglican Church / Church of England.
