This act made up part of the Elizabethan Religious Settlement in England instituted by Elizabeth I who wanted to unify the Anglican Church. Other acts concerned with this settlement were the Act Of Supremacy 1559 and the Thirty-Nine Articles ( 1563 ). Elizabeth was trying to achieve a settlement after thirty years of turmoil during the reigns of Henry VIII , Edward VI and Mary I , in which England had swung from Catholicism to Protestantism and back to Catholicism again. The outcome of the Elizabethan Settlement has been a sometimes tense and often fragile union of both catholic and protestant wings of the Church of England and Anglicanism world wide. The event was featured, albeit only briefly, in the movie Elizabeth(1998) . SEE ALSO EXTERNAL LINKS
