As the empire rose, Byzantine emperors and the pope often clashed. Byzantine emperors took interest in religion and considered themselves the final authority on religion issues while popes, however, insisted that they had ultimate say on such matters. (insisted they had a "say-so" a.k.a. "opinion" on the situation.) In 1504, this led to schism. # How did schism effect the Christian church? Resource: 7th grade history book

I'm not a historian so I might be wrong, but I believe it had almost no effect on modern day east-Europe. After the Muslims invaded the empire, most of the byzantine culture had been destroyed and by the time constantinopel (the last byzantine city standing) fell, the Muslims had overrun the byzatine culture. Some traces of the byzantine culture can be spotted with orthodox christians. Another point is, that the byzantine empire was centered in the extreme south-east of Europe (in somewhat modern day turkey and Greece), so there was little influence from the byzantine empire to the region of modern day Hungary, Romania, slowakia, Poland,... because the empire was mainly surrounded by the black sea, mountains (the balkans) and open plains (inhabbited).

Byzantine art actually drew influence from sources. Sculptures and Mosaics usually borrowed heavily from the Roman style - The Byzantine Empire was a continuation of the Empire of Rome so this is to be expected. However, there is a lot of Greek influence there too. In addition, and especially in architecture, the Byzantines were influenced by Eastern traditions. Domes and spires were used as frequently as arches and columns. One of the most famous Byzantine buildings is still a symbol of Istanbul - the Hagia Sophia cathedral (now a mosque) - and this is a distinctively Eastern structure. Christianity also had a profound effect.
