Detailed explanation-1: -One of the many religious disagreements between the western (Roman) and eastern (Byzantine) branches of the church had to do with whether or not it was acceptable to use unleavened bread for the sacrament of communion.
Detailed explanation-2: -The pope, as the bishop of Rome, is the head of the Holy See, the Roman Catholic Church’s central government. He thus makes decisions on issues of faith and morality for Catholics throughout the world, a population of about 1.3 billion.
Detailed explanation-3: -The Great Schism was the separation of the Catholic church of the West from the Orthodox churches of the East. This schism took place in 1054 and was caused by disagreements between Western and Eastern church leaders on several issues, including Papal authority and the Filioque clause of the Nicene Creed.
Detailed explanation-4: -The pope claimed he was the head of all Christian churches, but Byzantines thought other bishops were equal to the pope. In the late A.D. 700s, the Byzantine emperor refused to help the pope when Italy was invaded, which angered the pope.
