Between the papacies of Pope Gregory VII and Pope Innocent III, the political power of the Catholic Church significantly increased. Pope Gregory VII (1073-1085) asserted the Church's authority over secular rulers, particularly through the Investiture Controversy, which challenged lay investiture. By the time of Pope Innocent III (1198-1216), the Church had solidified its influence, wielding considerable power over monarchs, exemplified by his ability to excommunicate King John of England and place England under interdict. This period marked a transition from a church seeking independence to one that actively engaged in and shaped political affairs across Europe.
