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.

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".

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.

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).
