People questioned the need for only one church

Explanation:

The Great Schism had a very big effect on the future development of the European countries. The biggest effect of it was that the people saw the need for division in the church. The reason for this was the conflict that occurred between the east and west, with the end result being split in the church into the Roman Catholic Church and the Eastern Orthodox Church. The Roman Catholic Church heavily influenced the western part of Europe in the centuries to come, while the Eastern Orthodox Church influenced heavily the eastern part of Europe. This led to different cultural and political development in the two halves of Europe, which can be easily seen even nowadays.
