Basically, what happened, was the following. Justinian I wanted to place the Papcy in charge of Rome. He wanted to move from the Byzantine empire over to Rome. He led his forces in battle against the Ostrogoths and the Vandals. These were Barbarian groups that had adopted the Aryan syle of Christianity. He thought he was protecting Catholics when he was driving the Ostrogoths out of Rome. The Battle of Rome was fought in 537AD. The Papacy finally became the law of Rome so to speak when the Ostrogoths were driven out in 538AD. The Papacy at this point had taken power.
