Summary/Abstract: Separation of Christianity, the Great Schism of 1054, as a result of the struggle for power between Rome and Constantinople, in Orthodox and Catholic, can be considered the moment when Europe was split up for many years until our days. The Western Europe Church expansion had manifested itself in the Middle Age in Transylvania when after 1437 the Unio Trium Nationum had excluded the Romanian Orthodox from social, political and economic life. The separation of Christian religions between East and West led to severe consequences reflected in the development of the society in Transylvania, which propagated even until present days.
