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.
The Great Schism was the division of Chalcedonian Christianity into the Eastern (Greek) and Western (Latin) branches. The Great Schism began in Constantinople in 1053.
The Great Schism occurred in 1054, separating Christendom into two halves. The East became Eastern Orthodox and the West became Roman Catholic.
There were two events called the Great Schism, both of which happened in the Middle Ages. One was the East-West Schism, which divided the Roman Catholic and the Eastern Orthodox Churches from each other, this happened in 1054. The other was the Western Schism, which divided the Roman Catholic Church into to factions, from 1378 to 1417.
The only two examples in the Catholic Church are the Great Schism in the fourteenth century when there were two claimants to the papacy, and at one time, three. And earlier in the eleventh century when the Schism of the East occurred and the Eastern Orthodox Church split from the authority of the Pope. Some might include the protestant revolt, but as these people left the Church and did not retain valid Orders or Sacraments (saving baptism in some cases), it is not properly a schism.
MAIN CONSEQUENCES WERE THAT TWO RELIGONS WERE FORMED. ROMAN CATHOLIC AND THE EASTERN OTHODOX.
There are two syllables in the word schism.
Roman Catholic AnswerThere were two "schisms" that are commonly referred to when speaking of the church. The Western Schism or Great Schism was not a true schism but refers to the time in the late 14 century when the Pope moved to Avignon and another pseudo-Pope was elected in Rome; at one time, before the end of this disaster there were three "popes". The Schism of the East, which was a true schism, resulted in the Orthodox Church separating from the Catholic Church in 1054. This schism has been an off again, on again thing through the centuries and is a great heartbreak for the Church.
The great schism resulted from a conflict between the Catholic and the Orthodox Churches.
The Great Schism of 1054 occurred among the Christians of Eastern and Western Roman Empire.
Yes, these events are known as the Great Schism when the Roman Catholic church broke off The Orthodox Church.Roman Catholic AnswerIn the Catholic Church, the "Great Schism" usually refers to the Western schism when there were two, sometimes, three claimants to the papal throne. The pope had moved to Avignon, in France; another Pope was elected in Rome. This went on from 1378 until 1417. The Schism of the East in 1054 was between the Catholic Church and what is now called the Orthodox Church, is sometimes now in popular cultures as "the Great Schism". But, as I said, it is confusing as that technically refers to the Schism of the West not the East.
During the Great Schism, which lasted from 1378 to 1417, there were multiple claimants to the papacy. Initially, there was one pope in Rome and a rival pope in Avignon, leading to a total of two popes. Over time, a third claimant emerged, resulting in three popes simultaneously during certain periods of the schism. The situation was ultimately resolved at the Council of Constance, which ended the schism in 1417.
