Jesus Christ founded the Roman Catholic Church in this world. However, it was actually instituted (physically brought into existence) by St. Peter whom Christ gave a special mission to. If you look at Matthew 16:18, you'll see that Christ gives authority to Peter to found His Church. Peter took this mission to Rome, which was the center of the government, culture, and commerce at his time and he decided to found the church there. Thus the church is called the Roman Catholic Church.
