What effect did the dispute between the Orthodox and the Roman Catholic churches in the 11th century have?

Sagot :

The Great Schism - separation of the Orthodox and Catholic church into two churches, each promoting a different 'brand' of christianity

Political separation and tension between Eastern and Western Europe, as countries picked which church to follow

Creation of the title Ecumenical Patriarch for the head of the Orthodox church.

Raised tensions between Byzantium and Rome. 

etc.

Answer:

The two churches split apart permanently.

Explanation:

The splitting of the churches in Europe in the 11th century happened when Pope Leo IX came to Constantinople to meet the Eastern patriarch to solve the conflict of religion. Both did not agree on matters and excommunicated each other, which led to the Great Schism (split) of 1054. The Great Schism divided Christianity into two-part known as the  Eastern Orthodox and Roman Catholic.
