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.
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.
