today, the church of england is the established church in england. it regards itself as in continuity with the pre-reformation state catholic church (something the roman catholic church does not accept) and has been a distinct anglican church since the settlement under elizabeth i of england (with some disruption during the 17th-century commonwealth of england period). the british monarch is formally supreme governor of the church of england. its spiritual leader is the archbishop of canterbury, who is regarded by convention as the head of the worldwide anglican communion. in practice the church of england is governed by the general synod of the church of england, under the authority of parliament. the church of england's mission to spread the gospel has seen the establishment of many churches in the anglican communion throughout the world particularly in the commonwealth of nations.
