The '''Church of England''' (or, ''Anglican Church'') is the English national church that traces its history back to the sixth century in England. Under King [[Henry VIII]] it broke with Rome and formed a [[denomination]] that became part of the [[Protestant]] [[Reformation]]. It contains High Church elements (similar in ritual to the Roman Catholics), Low Church elements (similar to Methodists), and a Broad Church middle. It is part of the worldwide Anglican Communion.
