You're thinking of the Eastern Schism, sometimes called the Great Schism, but in the Catholic Church, the Great Schism refers to the Western Schism in the 15th century, not the Eastern Schism in the 11th century.

Which of the religion come first Catholic or Ortodhox?
Roman Catholic AnswerThe Catholic Church was founded by God from the side of Jesus Christ hanging on the cross, and confirmed 50 days later by the Holy Spirit at Pentecost. The Orthodox Church was formed when the eastern Churches declared their independence from Rome in the twelve century - considerably later; so the Catholic Church was "first".

When was the first schism of the Christian church?
We do not know when the first schism in the Christian Church occurred. Even in the time of Saint Paul, he talks of opponents and those who taught a "different Christ". By the beginning of the second century, and probably earlier, Christianity was divided along two major lines: what is sometimes now called the proto-Catholic-Orthodox Church and the Gnostic Churches. Marcion made his break from Rome in the middle of the second century. The split of the Coptic Church from the Catholic-Orthodox Church occurred in 451 CE. The Great Schism of 1054 separated the Roman Catholic and Orthodox Churches. The Western Schism of the fourteenth century temporarily split the Catholic Church. The Protestant Reformation was the next major schism, in the sixteenth century.

Are the Eastern Churches different than Catholic Church?
Catholic AnswerWell, some of them are different. You see, when the schism happened, each Eastern Church split into two, half stayed with Rome, and half left. So the ones that stayed with Rome (which are called the Uniate Churches) ARE Catholic Churches. The Catholic Church's largest Rite is the Latin Rite, but it also contains many other Rites, there are nine main Rites: Latin, Byzantine, Armenian, Chaldean, Coptic, Ethiopic, Malabar, Maronite, and Syrian rites. All of the Rites except the Latin and Maronite are also used by Christians who are no longer Catholics.

What did Western Europe do in their religion?
Western Europe has been predominately Christian since even before the Roman Empire adopted the religion. In 1054, the first separation of Christianity occurred when the Greek Orthodox Church split from the Latin Roman Catholic Church (Orthodoxy and Catholicism), this being the East-West Schism. Then in the 16th century, another separation of Christianity took place when several Europeans (mainly in Northern Europe) protested the Catholic Church and adopted their own form of Christianity, becoming known as Protestantism. Protestantism is formed of many different religions such as Anglicanism, Calvinism, Lutheranism, etc. This means that today, Christianity is split into three main branches: Catholicism (which remains the single largest denomination), Orthodoxy (composed of many different churches such as Greek Orthodoxy, Russian Orthodoxy, Romanian Orthodoxy, etc.), and Protestantism (which is the smallest of the branches).
When did roman Catholics and greek Catholics separate?
After Christ's resurection, there was only one church (keep in mind this is still the Roman Empire), but Christianity was illegal under Roman Law. So they were secret. As Rome weekend around 300AD, the church grew in strength and the persecutions against christians stopped.In 325 AD the Emporer Constantine allowed toleration of Christianity, but there were still quarrels amongst the several groups, such as when was the birth of Jesus, When is Easter?, Are Icons idolatory? what language etc..So Constantine gathered a representivie from each church, such as Greece, Rome, Egypt, Antioch, Judea, and Gaul (France) and ordered them to iron out their differences. This unity is known as the Council of Nicaea, and the final church became known as the HOLY ORTHODOX CATHOLIC CHURCH.Under the rules, Easter was set, as was the birth of Christ, and icons could be allowed, each church could retain local traditions.In 1054AD the Great Schism occurred, The Eastern Churches remained under the Ecumenical Councils and West became Catholic. After the fall of Rome, the Eastern Churches picked up the remains of the Roman Empire, and called themselves New Rome (the Byzantine Empire), as the Catholic churches fought for power, the French, English, Italian States and Spanish States were formed.Today there cannot be another Ecumenical Council (Council of Nicaea was the first) because it requires that an Emperor be present to convene it.
What are the Egyptian Coptic Church's relations with Roman Catholic Church?
Yes. The Coptic Catholic Church broke away with the Coptic Orthodox Church to come into full communion with the Catholic Church. This occurred around 1741 under the direction of a Coptic bishop named Amba Athanasius. Athanasius converted to Catholicism with about 2,000 Coptics. Although Althanasius converted back to the Coptic Orthodox Church, most of the people remained and grew into what is now the Coptic Catholic Church. It's important to note that the Coptic Catholic Church is not an independent Church, but a rite under the Catholic Church. The differences between rites are purely cultural, NOT doctrinal. So even though different rites in the Catholic Church may celebrate mass a little differently, they all believe in the same teachings of the Catholic Church and remain loyal to the Pope.
