Henry
It made the English King, not th epope, the offical head of England's church
It was a red cross on a flag given to England by the Pope in the 13th century, just basically symbolizing their freedom and independence. Its basically the flag of England, it could be religious too. English-Catholic I'm guessing.
The Royalist side, or the Cavaliers, were the predominantly Catholic side.
The Babington Plot was a Catholic plot in 1586 to assassinate Queen Elizabeth, a Protestant, and put Mary, Queen of Scots, a Catholic, on the English throne. It led to the execution of Mary. The long-term goal was an invasion by the Spanish forces of King Philip II and the Catholic league in France, leading to the restoration of the Catholic religion in England. The chief conspirator was Sir Anthony Babington (1561-1586), a young Catholic nobleman. The leading Catholics in England were loyal to Elizabeth and rebuffed overtures to support the plot. The actual designers were Don Bernardino de Mendoza in Paris and King Philip II in Madrid.
The answer to this question is very complex considering the social structure of the American colonies at the time. However, there is sufficient evidence that points out that the original goals of the revolution (or the events preceding it) were not intended to seek independence from England. As the movements towards colony rights and representation failed, these goals began to shift and create liberty ideals that would eventualy lead to the independence of the colonies from their mother country.

No. No English royal has been Catholic since Henry VIII. He began the Church of England when he defied the Pope in his marriage to Ann Boleyn. It is against English law for a King or Queen of England to be Catholic. So, the wedding yesterday was in the Church of England.
what is your opinion about the supremacy of the English language?

The English Catholic Church is just that, a Catholic Church in union with the pope in Rome. It is no different from any Catholic Church elsewhere in the world except that the language used is English. While the Church of England (Anglican Church) claims to be "Catholic" they are not in union with the pope in Rome so are considered as a Protestant denomination and not Catholic.
Henry the VIII did NOT separate the Church of England from the Catholic Church, he separated the Catholic Church IN Englandfrom the rest of the Catholic Church and formed the Church OF England. Big difference, before Henry VIII there was no Church OF England, only the Catholic Church IN England. In 1534 he had Parliment issue the Act of Supremacy.from the Website :Sovereign and Pope in English Bidding Prayersbefore and after 1534J. Frank HendersonIn 1534 King Henry VIII decreed that he was not only sovereign -- the ruler -- of the country but also supreme head of the church in England. In other words, he now took the place of the pope, who had no further role to play in England. Henry's claim to supremacy was made both legally and politically, but also liturgically.
