Describe the steps by which england became a protestant country

Henry VIII asked the Catholic pope to annul his marriage from Catherine of Aragon to marry Anne Boleyn. He had a daughter with Catherine, but wanted a male heir. The pope disagreed, so Henry decided to take over the Church of England. He had a series of laws passed through Parliament. The church was placed under Henry's rule away from the pope. In 1534, the Act of Supremacy made Henry "the only supreme head on Earth of the Church of England". Many Catholics who refused to accept the Act of Supremacy were executed for treason.

Also, The English didn't like that the church was taking them to death so a man by the name of Calvin starting spreading the idea that was based on Christianity but wasn't dependent on the church like Catholicism. His belief was that the more you work and save money, the better chance that you will get into heaven- Catholics believed in the opposite. Everyone started focusing on working and saving creating the start of our current economic beliefs. 

Hope this helped :)

They made a checks and balance system to equal power within the branches. the "check" meant that one branch would watch one branch and "balance" them if they were too powerful. if you want more info on this, i would just google checks and balance system.
