Church History #6 From Multiplication to Division Discipleship Freely

- Christianity
Time Period: 700-1300
Topics: the Holy Roman Empire, the Great Schism between Roman Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy, the Crusades
As we go deeper into the Middle Ages (8th-13th c.), the (partially) converted barbarian tribes and their loyalty to the Pope created a semblance of order. Pope Leo III helped revive the Western Roman Empire (to an extent) by anointing King Charles of the Franks (Charlemagne) to be emperor of the Holy Roman Empire. But while the west was attempting a revival, the divide between east and west was widening, leading to the Great Schism between the Latin west (Roman Catholic) and the Greek east (Eastern Orthodox).
