Answer:




In 1220 monarchs fought with the papacy over whether or not rulers could choose what clergy they wanted in their offices. They papacy won this battle because German princes had defeated the emperor. As a result the papacy put themselves into European politics. This made them vulnerable to criticism. This criticism came from religious reformers and royal supporters. These people did not believe the way of political self-promotion was a good mission for the Church.


At around 1450 the papacy worked in agreement with the emperor versus going against him. The church only had power when it came to church related things. For example: working together with the emperor to make a council.
