The Church has never exerted control over royalty and decision making, that is not Her mission entrusted to Her by Our Blessed Lord, there have been times in history when individual monarchs have turned to the Pope for help or advice, and for many centuries it was normal to invite the ranking prelate of your country to put the crown on your head. Also, individual Popes and Bishops have tried to exert control over various rulers but that was on an individual basis and was not "Church" approved.

How long did the church and king have control over Europe during the medieval era?
During the medieval era, roughly from the 5th to the late 15th century, the church and monarchy exerted significant control over Europe. The Catholic Church was a dominant spiritual authority, influencing social, political, and cultural life, while kings and queens held temporal power through feudal systems and dynastic rule. Their intertwined authority often shaped governance and societal norms, with monarchs seeking the church's legitimacy and the church relying on monarchs for protection and enforcement of its doctrines. This dual control began to wane with the rise of nation-states and the Reformation in the 16th century.
What is the Mormon position on the birth control pill?
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) teaches that the use of birth control is a personal decision between a married couple and God. The church does encourage couples to welcome children into the world, but if the couple feels they are not emotionally or financially prepared for another child or if a pregnancy would be harmful to the mother's health, the use of birth control is accepted. Most Mormon couples use birth control at some point in their marriage, and the pill is one of the most common forms of birth control in the United States.
