Which of fthe following was a direct result of the east-west schism?
Christianity was split between the roman catholic church and the eastern orthodox church
First split between east and west christian church?
The first split between the Christian church in the East and the Christian church in the West probably took place during the time of the Byzantine Empire. Some of the issues that caused this split were that the Eastern emperor viewed himself as head of the church as well as ruler of state, and the Pope in the West viewed HIMSELF as head of the church, and a varying opinion over idols. The Westerners had no problem worshipping/praying to idols, because many of them couldn't read, but the Easterners felt that it was wrong to worship an image. Thus, the church split into the Roman Catholics and the Greek Orthodox.

What was the dispute that split the medieval Christian church?
The Catholic Church was split in 1054 in the East-West Schism, into the Roman Catholic Church, in the West, and the Eastern Orthodox Church. The reason for this split was a disagreement over what authority the pope had in eastern dioceses. Put simply, the Western Church held the pope was a ruling authority, but the Eastern Church would only accept the pope as a symbolic authority. You should remember that there were other Churches aside from the Catholic Church at the time, including the Oriental Orthodox, Coptic Orthodox, and others, so the entire Christian Church was not involved. There is a link below that you can use for more information. The most important dispute that split the Church was over the supremacy of the Pope, versus the independence of the bishops, particularly of the East. This produced the East-West Schism of 1054, which divided the largest body of the Church into the Roman Catholic Church, in the West, and the Eastern Orthodox Church, in the East. There is a link below.
Which event led to the formal split of the Christian Church?
Throughout its history the Christian church has undergone two major splits:The first occurred in 1054 AD, in what is commonly called "The Great Schism" in which the church was split into the Eastern Orthodox and Western branches. The split came to be as a result of deteriorating relations, and theological disagreements between the Pope of Rome, and the Patriarch of Constantinople.The second split began in 1517 AD, but was not officially recognized until 1648. This split of the Catholic church occurred when Martin Luther posted his infamous "Ninety-five Theses" and Christians across Europe defected from the Catholic church, forming the Protestant branch of Christianity.
What happened before protestantism?
Well....there was only one Church...the Catholic Church starting in AD33 after Pentecost....in 1054, the Great Schism between the Western and Eastern Church occurred...splitting Christianity into the Catholic Church (west) and the Orthodox Church (east). Then the protestant reformation started around 1517 or so....with Martin Luther as the catalyst. This further caused a split in the western church.

What was the argument between the eastern Orthodox church and the roman catholic church?
The simple answer is this: There were two centers of the Church - one in Rome, one in Constantinople. Each wanted primacy, and so they excommunicated each other and the Church was split. Having said this, there were a number of differences in dogma between the each and the west, and the division had been coming for a long time.

Why was the eastern orthodox religion founded?
the Church was not so much founded but the result of a schism of the early church. The east felt that rome was moving away from the core of the church teachings and remained more traditional. it can be argued that the eastern church is actually the true descendent of the early church and that the Roman Catholic is the one that split with them and is the nee kid on the block. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/East-West_Schism
