How is the church both divine and human?

The church is the people. People are human but divine because we are created in God's image. Actually, The Church is both visible and spiritual, a hierarchical society and the Mystical Body of Christ. She is one, yet formed of two components, human and divine. That is her mystery, which only faith can accept. If anyone has questions about the catholic church, read the Cathecism of the Catholic Church

How was Europe religiously divided from the 1500's on?

Let us go in order of the history of Christianity. Christianity started as one church. However, tensions rose and this church split into two separate churches around 1043: the Roman Catholic Church and the Eastern Orthodox Church. A second split came around the 1500s and a new branch was formed: Protestantism (splitting off Catholicism). These three major forms of Christianity had their own area in Europe. Northern Europe was predominately Protestant. Western Europe was predominately Catholic. Eastern Europe was predominately Orthodox. The same remains today.
