Key Concepts
The Roman Catholic Church was the most powerful institution in medieval Europe, unifying a fragmented continent. For the average person, the Church was the center of community life: it recorded births, performed marriages, and conducted burials.
The Church held immense power because it controlled the Sacraments (sacred rituals like baptism and communion). Medieval Christians believed that participating in these sacraments was the only way to achieve Salvation (entry into heaven). By threatening to withhold these rituals through Excommunication , the Church could control the behavior of both peasants and kings.
