The early centuries of Christianity were marked by division between the two major branches known today as proto-Catholic-Orthodox and Gnostic Christianity. Gradually, the well-organised Catholic-Orthodox gained the upper hand, especially after Constantine adopted that faith.
Unlike the Catholic-Orthodox branch, Gnosticism was inherently fragmented, with new sects developing as beliefs evolved. In the tenth century, a Bulgarian priest, Bogomil, preached in his homeland a Gnostic faith that by the eleventh and twelfth centuries had spread to other Balkan countries and to Asia Minor.
After 1180, the Orthodox Serbs became the dominant regional force and drove the Bogomils westward to Dalmatia and Bosnia, where it became the state religion and continued until the Turkish occupation in the fifteenth century. At this point, tired of centuries of persecution by Orthodox Christians, many Bogomils converted to Islam.
