The Western Schism, also known as the Papal Schism, lasted from 1378 to 1417. It was a split within the Roman Catholic Church, where there were two or even three rival popes claiming authority. The Schism resulted in a decline of Church power as it weakened the credibility and unity of the Church, creating divisions among the faithful.

Western Schism
Yes, these events are known as the Great Schism when the Roman Catholic church broke off The Orthodox Church.Roman Catholic AnswerIn the Catholic Church, the "Great Schism" usually refers to the Western schism when there were two, sometimes, three claimants to the papal throne. The pope had moved to Avignon, in France; another Pope was elected in Rome. This went on from 1378 until 1417. The Schism of the East in 1054 was between the Catholic Church and what is now called the Orthodox Church, is sometimes now in popular cultures as "the Great Schism". But, as I said, it is confusing as that technically refers to the Schism of the West not the East.
There were two events called the Great Schism, both of which happened in the Middle Ages. One was the East-West Schism, which divided the Roman Catholic and the Eastern Orthodox Churches from each other, this happened in 1054. The other was the Western Schism, which divided the Roman Catholic Church into to factions, from 1378 to 1417.
Historians find there are two successive periods: - from 1309 to 1378, periods when the Pope is installed in Avignon instead of Rome; - from 1378 until 1418 period of the Western Schism, when rival popes competed in both Avignon and Rome.

According to History Today, it is called the Great Schism: Great Schism (1378-1417)Division of the Roman Catholic church in which rival popes sat in Rome and Avignon. The election of the Italian Pope Urban VI (a reaction to the French-dominated Avignon papacy) led to the election of a rival pope, the French Clement VII. The two sat respectively at Rome and Avignon, causing the schism. France, Scotland, Castile and Portugal backed Clement; England, Flanders, Hungary and the Holy Roman empire supported Urban. In 1409 the Council of Pisa attempted to resolve the split but only produced a third rival pope. Another council at Constance (1414) which healed the schism by electing one new Matin V. The schism weakened the papacy and strengthened the view that popes should be guided by church councils.

There are two syllables in the word schism.
In 1054 AD the Christian Church was split into 2.Catholic AnswerYou are asking two different questions if you are asking about the Great Schism of 1054 as the Great Schism happened in the 14th century, the Schism in the 11th century is called the Schism of the East, so below are the two answers: .The Great Schism was not really a schism, it is often confused with the Schism of the East when the Orthodox Church split from Rome back in the eleventh century. In the fourteenth century, the pope moved to Avignon in France, an antipope was elected in Rome, and finally we ended up with three claimants to the papal throne. After the Great Schism was healed, the Holy Father returned to Rome and stayed there. I believe that the papacy lost some of its temporal prestige over the entire incident.from A Catholic Dictionary, edited by Donald Attwater, Second edition, revised 1957The Great Schism, otherwise know as the Schism of the West was not strictly a schism at all but a conflict between the two parties within the Church each claiming to support the true pope. Three months after the election of Urban VI, in 1378, the fifteen electing cardinals declared that they had appointed him only as a temporary vicar and that in any case the election was invalid as made under fear of violence from the Roman mob..Catholic AnswerThe result of the Eastern Schism was the establishment of the Orthodox Churches apart from Rome, or as the Holy Father said of it, "we are only breathing on one lung." When the Orthodox split from the Church, each of them split down the middle so that half stayed with Rome, and half started the Orthodox Church, thus there is a Greek Orthodox Church, and a Greek Uniate Rite within the Catholic Church, and so on for each of the rites and Churches.
The Crusaders became the military arm of the Church, and used force to restore Christianity. The Papacy suffered badly over the Crusades, as did all Christendom.The Babylonian Captivity was the moving of the Papacy to Avignon in France from 1305 - 1378. This split the Church and divided the leadership as there were two Popes at the same time. The illegitimate or unrecognised Pope is called an Antipope. This lead to schism.The Great Schism (sometimes called the Western Schism related to the Popes in Avignon and the Popes in Rome. By its end, three men simultaneously claimed to be the true pope. Driven by politics rather than any real theological disagreement, the schism was ended by the Council of Constance (1414-1418). The simultaneous claims to the papal chair of three different men hurt the reputation of the office.
