The specific type of Christianity practiced by the eastern half of the Roman Empire was known as Eastern Orthodox Christianity. It developed its own distinct traditions and teachings separate from Western Christianity, eventually leading to the Great Schism of 1054 that permanently divided the Eastern and Western branches of Christianity. Eastern Orthodox Christianity is still practiced today, primarily in countries such as Russia, Greece, and Eastern European countries.
The Great Schism was between the eastern (Greek)and western (Latin) branches of Christianity: the Eastern Orthodox Church and the Roman Catholic Church. This was not due to eastern and western empires splitting their religions. The western empire did not exist then. It had fallen more than 1,000 years earlier. It was a falling out between the two main branches of Christianity. Previously they had tried to be two branches of a Christian creed which was united against several diffident forms of dissident Christianity. Disagreements and conflict between the two churches grew and this led to the schism.

Western Christianity and Eastern Christianity differ in their theological beliefs, practices, and church structures. Western Christianity, represented by the Roman Catholic Church and Protestant denominations, emphasizes the authority of the Pope, original sin, and the concept of purgatory. Eastern Christianity, represented by the Eastern Orthodox Church, focuses on the authority of councils, theosis (the process of becoming more like God), and the belief in the divine liturgy. Additionally, Western Christianity tends to use more individualistic language and focuses on personal salvation, while Eastern Christianity emphasizes communal salvation and the importance of the church community.

Both empires grew too large to protect.
Eastern Christianity and Western Christianity differ in their theological beliefs, church structure, liturgical practices, and cultural influences. Eastern Christianity, represented by the Eastern Orthodox Church, emphasizes mysticism, iconography, and the importance of tradition. Western Christianity, represented by the Roman Catholic Church and Protestant denominations, places more emphasis on the authority of the Pope, the concept of original sin, and the role of individual faith. These differences have led to distinct practices and beliefs within each tradition.
The Eastern and Western branches of Christianity severed links and considered each other heretical. The Eastern brach is usually called Orthodox and the Western Catholic. One sad consequence was that the Western crusaders attacked Constantinople, the centre of Eastern Christianity, in 1204.
