He created the Church of England.

Henry VIII broke with Rome after the pope refused to annul his marriage to Catherine of Aragon; the 1534 Act of Supremacy made him Supreme Head of the Church of England and began the English Reformation. (He did not lead the German Reformation — that was Martin Luther — nor did he stand trial at the Diet of Worms or lead Swiss reformers like Zwingli or Calvin.)
