In brief, The Anglican Church is a Protestant church which traces its roots to the English King, Henry VIII, and his disputes with the Roman Catholic Church over his divorce and remarriage. Today, the church is spread throughout the world, especially in English speaking countries, and has 3 main wings: evangelical; anglo-catholic; liberal.
