What european musical form were english anthems based on?

Anthem is a musical composition of celebration, usually used as a symbol for a distinct group, particularly the national anthems of countries. Originally, and in music theory and religious contexts, it also refers more particularly to short sacred choral work(still frequently seen in Sacred Harp and other types of shape note singing) and still more particularly to a specific form of Anglican church music.
