henry viii
the english reformation was ostensibly based on henry viii's desire for annulment of his marriage with catherine of aragon, and was initially more of a political, and later a theological dispute. the acts of supremacy made the english monarch head of the english church thereby establishing the church of england. then, beginning in 1536, some 825 monasteries throughout england, wales and ireland were dissolved and catholic churches were confiscated. when he died in 1547 all monasteries, friaries, convents of nuns and shrines were destroyed or dissolved. mary i of england reunited the church of england with rome and, against the advice of the spanish ambassador, persecuted protestants during the marian persecutions. after some provocation, the following monarch, elizabeth i enforced the act of supremacy. this prevented catholics from becoming members of professions, holding public office, voting or educating their children. executions of catholics and dissenting protestants under elizabeth i, who reigned much longer, then surpassed the marian persecutions and persisted under subsequent english monarchs. elizabeth i also executed other penal laws were also enacted in ireland but were less effective than in england. in part because the irish people associated catholicism with nationhood and national identity, they resisted persistent english efforts to eliminate the catholic church.
