Christianity in Western Europe

The early Christian Church that Constantine allowed was organised into Bishops, Presbyters and Deacons. Various councils were held over the years to agree on core beliefs like the three forms of God. After the establishment of Constantinople, Christianity in the Western Roman Empire developed in its own way. The Bishop of Rome, the Pope, was believed to have supremacy over the Christian Church as a whole. In Western Europe various monastic orders developed where the members devoted their life to God.
