Answer:

The fall of Constantinople.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the late 1400s, after an Ottoman army stormed the vital city, a Muslim leader marched into Hagia Sophia and eventually converted it into a mosque. In turn this marked the end of the Byzantine Empire which was very heavily based on religion and papal supremacy.
