No one "discovered " it. To be discovered something has to all ready exist. The Catholic Church traces its history to Jesus and the Apostles. For the first 280 years of Christian history Christianity was banned by the Roman Empire. This changed after the conversion of Constantine who provided religious toleration with the Edict of Milan in 313 AD. Later, the Council of Nices attempted to unify Christianity as a religion that would unite the Roman Empire. The church that Constantine promoted was a mixture of Christianity and Roman paganism. The Catholic Church ended up christianized the pagan religion and blurring the differences making itself the Supreme religion in the Roman world for centuries. In 590 Pope Gregory I consolidated lands controlled by authority of the pope that would become the "Papal states."
