Eventually, it led to the Schism of the East in the 11th century. This from the website "The Byzantine period"
In the eighth century a controversy broke out between the Byzantine emperor Leo III and the pope concerning the use of icons or images in church worship, the emperor taking the position that the icons were an aid only to superstition while the pope claimed that they heightened religious feeling. When Leo and his successors forbade the use of images and ordered them to be broken, the pope was powerless to do more than protest; but the Iconoclastic Controversy embittered relations between Rome and Constantinople for a century, and undoubtedly contributed to the desire of the popes to be protected by the Franks rather than by the Byzantine emperors, who were in their own view little better than heretics. The controversy was at last settled in favor of the papal position in the ninth century. But only twenty-four years later a further schism developed between the two Churches, and a Church council dominated by the Byzantines anathematized the pope and rejected papal supremacy (867). Though this quarrel too was patched up, Greek national feeling became involved, and the pretensions of Rome became ever more abhorrent to the Byzantines. Finally in 1054 the split became permanent, ostensibly on a question of doctrine-though the competing interests of pope and patriarch in southern Italy, which had just been conquered by the Normans, were perhaps more important at the time. The Orthodox and Roman branches of the Church have diverged on doctrine ever since.

This is the Investiture Crisis a dispute between the Pope and the Emperor as to whom had the right to invest Bishops the lay ruler or the Church. It was symptomatic of a dispute between the Pope and the Emperor as to their authority, in particular their authority over each other. Pope Gregory eventually won this dispute and Henry was forced to seek absolution from the Pope. The dispute over the secular power of the Pope (and for that matter the right of the secular ruler to have control over the Church) did not end here however and by the later Middle Ages the secular power of the papacy had effectively ended outside the Papal State and this ended in 1870 with the fall of Rome to the Italian army.
Spain and Portugal
The role of pope urban was to convince the Franks to go to the east to assist the Byzantines against the attacks of the Muslim Turks and to liberate Jerusalem -the crusades-
At the request of the Byzantine Emperor Alexius Comnenus, Pope Urban II called for knights from western Europe to come and help the Byzantines drive the Seljuk Turks out of Palestine.
It means that the pope is the leader of the Universal Church - all of Christianity. However, non-Catholics dispute this and do not recognize the pope as their leader.
Attempt to attack the clergy
According to my book, they wanted to win the holy land from the infidels. The infidels disturbed the Christians due to their Non-Christian religion. They also wanted to reunite the Western and Eastern Christians' under Pope Urban II's control. Pope Urban II was the leader of the clergy from the fact that he was the pope. The pope is higher than all levels. The order is pope to cardinals to archbishops to bishop to monks to priest the to nuns. There was also an advantage to reuniting the Western and Eastern Christians. The advantage was having the Byzantines as their ally. The Byzantines were a strong empire. So surely, the Byzantines helped in the war. It did not only add more people but it also added more power. I hope I helped!
