Yeah - there’s actual video evidence of it exploding! Unfortunately that means that it no longer exists, so that would explain why it’s absent from the Pope’s blessèd gun rack.
So, Anglican theologians like John Keble and John Henry Newman (who later converted to Roman Catholicism) built off of a notion advanced by the 16th Century Anglican Divines that viewed Anglican Christianity as a distinct branch that developed alongside Roman Catholicism and Orthodoxy. Things like the Synod of Whitby are cited as evidence that the Roman church worked hard to bring this distinct form of the church inline with Roman polity and practices (in some views Celtic Christianity is viewed as being part of this wider “English” branch of the faith). This resulted in a long-standing tenuous relationship with English Christianity and the Catholicism of continental Europe (reflected in things like the Sarum rite, etc.). So when the Reformation happened, this gave the opportunity for English Christianity to pick up where they left off and live into that distinct mode of being.
Given this, according to branch theory proponents, there would be Anglicans in the 900s. They were just put under the veil of Roman Christianity at the time.
Ah, the Roman Catholic Church and government. One of the most destructive and violent church governments on the last 2 millinea, now they are still very rapy molesty, but now the world’s largest realty corporation that pays zero taxes.
Wait… no, it’s still the same as the last 2 millinea, given the roman Catholic Church government’s didn’t pay taxes and owned a massive amount of stolen and conquered land
There is no hand grenade in the picture, I call bullshit
The holy hand grenade of Antioch is a Anglican relic you absolute dolt.

The Anglicans of 932?
[contemplates going on a tangent about the Branch Theory of Anglican identity, decides against it]
I beg you to reconsider
