Best Answer
Roman Catholic AnswerOne of the biggest things to happen during the reign of Pope Gregory VII was the investiture controversy. The issue was who had the right to appoint bishops, and the Popes have always held that as their right. King Henry IV, the Holy Roman Emperor, was the primary target of Pope St. Gregory VII, but the popes have always said that it was their right, alone, to appoint new bishops, Henry disagree. In short, Pope St. Gregory VII said that kings could no longer appoint bishops.
