After the collapse of the Roman Empire, the Catholic Church played a crucial role in unifying Europe by providing a sense of stability and continuity in a fragmented political landscape. It established a common religious framework that transcended tribal and regional divisions, fostering a shared identity among diverse populations. Through the spread of Christianity, the Church also influenced laws, education, and culture, promoting literacy and the arts. Additionally, it served as a mediator in conflicts and a patron of charitable works, further solidifying its central role in European society.
