while frenchmen and spaniards fought one another in europe and the caribbean, england sided with spain, largely because of dynastic alliances. in 1509, prince henry of england married princess catherine of aragon and soon thereafter they were crowned king and queen. it was a tortuous marriage, to say the least, and henry viii began to separate from catherine in 1527. when pope clement vii refused to annul the marriage, henry viii pushed the english catholic church to separate from rome and become the church of england, free from the pope's authority. following henry viii's death in 1547, yet another anglo-spanish dynastic marriage was arranged, this time between spain's prince phillip and queen mary i, the catholic daughter of anglican henry viii. during their brief reign, the church of england was again subject to the pope's authority.
