The Christian church split 1054 into the Eastern and the Western, which was then to become the Roman Catholic church.

Actually, the Church was founded on Pentecost Sunday about the year 33 AD when the Holy Spirit descended upon the Apostles and inspired them to begin evangelizing. We do not know when the word 'Catholic Church' was first spoken but it first appears in the writings on St. Ignatius of Antioch in the year 106 AD. When the Church split in 1054 the West kept the name Catholic while the East became known as the Orthodox.
