In what region did bishops not recognize the pope's authority?

Any Catholic Bishop should recognize the Pope's authority anywhere he happens to be. For instance, when Henry VIII took England out of the Catholic Church, he ended up having to get rid of every Bishop and appoint new ones (I believe that there was one man that he kept). If you are asking about a specific situation, ask another question and specify the country and the year that you are curious about.
