Best Answer

There were two main churches: Roman Catholic and Orthodox.

- UPDATE -

Actually there were three main churches at the time, the Roman Catholic Church, Eastern Orthodox Church and Oriental Orthodox Church.

The Oriental Orthodox Church was the first church to break away from the Orthodox Church (Eastern Orthodox Church) in 451AD followed by the Roman Catholic Church in 1054AD.

Catholic - organized under the Pope, the bishop of Rome.

Orthodox - organized into separate jurisdictions, under the patriarch of that jurisdiction, mostly according to language, such as the Greek Orthodox and the Russian Orthodox.
