What two branches of Christianity were formed in 1054?
In 1054 Christ's which (except for small groups of heretics and the Oriental Orthodox) was generally undivided and truly one split into the Roman Catholic Church and the Eastern Orthodox Church. The Orthodox would see the division this way: before 1054 there was just the Orthodox Church. After 1054 there was the Orthodox Church and the heretical church of the Patriarch of Rome, which would eventually call itself the Roman Catholic Church. The Romans would say that prior to 1054 there was just the Roman Catholic Church and then the Orthodox split off becoming a separate church. The way I, an Anglo Catholic, see it was that they both split from each other creating the Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox churches. Neither church really existed as a separate denomination before. The denominational terms came into existence because of the tragic split.

Why did Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox churches split?
According to my textbook "world religions western traditions" contentions between the doctrine of whom Christ was, was prominent between the two sects ultimately leading to a power struggle between the East and the West. Division also probably had to do more with politics and cultural differences. Characteristics that varied from Latin Christianity which was prominent in Orthodox Christianity was the fact that Latin wasn't the only language which liturgy took place in, the marriage of clergymen was acceptable, and they didn't see the pope as the head of the church.
