The separation of the Christian church into western and Eastern was quite anticipated on the basis of these conflicts:

-Disagreements between churches. Churches could not find agreement either in rites, in politics or in culture.

-Disagreements in politics. The main problem of the conflict on the political ground was the antagonism between emperors of Byzantium and the Roman Paami.

-Disagreement in culture. The main problem in the cultural sphere was the difference between languages. So, in the east the main language was Greek, and in the West-Latin. In other words, to read each other's literature, people were looking for translations, otherwise,they were fond of different books.
