I am extremely tempted to make a dingo ate my baby joke, but in fairness many of the Australians Ive known actually do find that offensive, so I wont.

Anglicans are a... sort.of a branch of English Christianity founded when an an English King wanted to divorce wife, but the Pope would not authorize this.

His solution was to basically tell the Pope and all of Catholicism to get rekt, and he basically founded his own religion by splitting Christianity away from Catholicism, naming this Anglicism or the Anglican Church, and this new branch of Christianity he basically created allowed him to divorce his wife.

Then there were like hundreds of years of wars and basically what we would now todag call domestic terrorism between various versions of Christianity in and around England.
