In 1378, the Catholic Church faced significant challenges that weakened its authority, including the Great Schism, where multiple claimants to the papacy emerged, and widespread corruption and moral decay among the clergy. Additionally, the rise of Humanism and calls for reform highlighted the church's failings. However, the steadfast loyalty of many believers and the church's vast landholdings and wealth continued to provide a degree of stability and influence. Thus, while various factors contributed to its weakening, certain elements, like committed followers, helped maintain its power.

All the following are legacies of the reformation Except?

All the following are legacies of the Reformation except the establishment of a unified Catholic Church. The Reformation led to the fragmentation of Christianity, resulting in the emergence of various Protestant denominations and a decline in the Catholic Church's dominance. It also fostered an emphasis on individual interpretation of the Bible, the importance of personal faith, and contributed to changes in education and literacy. However, a unified Catholic Church is not a legacy of this movement.
