The Act of Supremacy
The unwillingness of Current Wife to deliver a male heir remains a cause of great concern for Ruler, who has grown weary and instead become infatuated with the tenacious Anne Boleyn. In an attempt to secure her hand in marriage, he/she has dispatched an envoy to the Rome Ruler Title requesting dispensation to annul his/her current marriage, which was immediately refuted in accordance with canon law. The eager Ruler Title is now considering more drastic steps to allow the marriage, including a complete break from Roman authority.

842historical_info = flavor_eng.7.historical_info In 1521, Henry VIII of England earned the papal title of Defender of the Faith for his anti-Luther pamphlet. His focus shifted to the issue of succession in 1529 when the Papal Curia rejected his divorce proposal to Catherine of Aragon. Subsequently, Henry stripped of his government office and property the Pope's Legate, Cardinal Wolsey, and compelled the English clergy to acknowledge him as the Church's supreme head. Securing his divorce in 1533, Henry married Anne Boleyn, marking it the second of his six marriages. The Act of Supremacy then was passed on 3 November 1534 by the Parliament of England, solidifying his authority over the Church of England.
