In 1054, the Great Schism occurred in Christianity, leading to the separation of the Eastern Orthodox Church and the Roman Catholic Church. This schism was largely over theological, cultural, and political differences between the two branches of Christianity. It marked a permanent split in the Christian faith, with lasting implications for the religious landscape of Europe and the Middle East.

Why was Catholicism the first Christian religion?

The very early days of Christianity apparently saw considerable diversity within the Christian community, as evidenced by the comments of authors such as Paul and Matthew. Some of the very early Christian sects include Ebionites, Nazarenes, Nazoraeans, Cerinthians and Carpocratians, as well as what was later to become known as the proto-Catholic Orthodox Church. With the strong support of Emperor Constantine, the Catholic Orthodox Church became the dominant Christian Church and eventually the state religion of Rome. After the Great Schism of 1054, the then universal Catholic Orthodox Church split into the separate Roman Catholic and Orthodox branches of Christianity. So, although Catholicism has roots going back to the very beginning of Christianity, it really only separated from its sister Orthodox Churches in 1054 CE.
