There actually were conflicts and battles fought, but not directly by the popes. These were fought by the various countries that supported them. Really countries used the fact that since one side supported a different pope, they could justify their choice to go to war and not be excommunicated for fighting one another, as their pope was a "heretic". This schism laid the groundwork (along with the corruption/abuses of power of the papacy in general) for the protestant reformation that came after.
Using medieval style of painting to make this video was one of the best artistic decisions this channel made in a very long time. Adding some Gregorian Chant was also a nice touch!
thats why I cant take the doctrine of the papacy seriously, papacy ends if the papal line cannot trace their roots to St Peter nvm that apostolic succession is not even for papacy
i had to watch this twice because the first time i was too enamoured by the amazing visual storytelling. the football game with death, the "almighty hand from above" which turned out to be controlled by the cardinals, slurping others' pasta, soooo creative
Speaking of medieval Papacy shennanigans, You should also portray the conflict between the Pope and the Holy Roman Emperor, and their supporters: Guelphs and Ghibelines.
This is gorgeous video. The animators truly deserve a bonus for the magnificant artwork. One thing I think should have been added though, is that the Great Schism corresponded with the Hundred Years War between England and France (England of course, supported Rome, and France Avignon). Though this war did not take on a religious tinge, it did provide an interesting focal point for politics with English allies supporting Rome and France's allies Avignon. Lastly, the video says that this schism did not effect average Catholics. While it is correct that there were no major doctrinal differences, the schism did contribute to a growing apathy towards the Church and rise in popular piety. Amazing video.
I like the fact that Ted-Ed used the medieval artstyle to this video even though this event took place in the late medieval age and hats off to Buzasi, Dementeva & Shmidt for drawing and animating this masterpiece
I’m indulging in medieval history since I brainlessly never thought to take a class in it during college. It’s fascinating to me. Also, this video production top notch stuff.
"But regardless of how the schism ended, its existence proves that even those who are supposed to be pious are prone to petty power struggles." Truth at the end.
I so appreciate the time and effort that go into the illustration and lesson! What a fun and different way to learn :) it always reinvests me into learning various topics they discuss ❤ keep up the hard work, we love it!
I am from the Castellón Province and I have been more than once to the castle of Pope Benedict XIII, Papa Luna, in Peñíscola; we say of a stubborn person that they "sigue en sus trece;" they stay in their thirteen, after his papal number.
There are two competing -standards- popes. -Engineers- Cardinals: "lets create a new -standard- pope to unite everything" There are three competing -standards- popes.
As a catholic I would’ve loved if you added more context to this historical situation. But I understand time and budget constraints. Good video. God is good, God bless✝️🙏
As a devout Catholic, I enjoyed this video. Nicely done. But to be clear, the Catholic Church has always had only one pope at a time as far as the office goes. The others are considered as anti-popes, or in Benedict XIV’s case, he was Pope Emeritus (a title, not the office) upon abdication.
@@ironkraken7157 Yea, but it’s not made up. The fact there is a unbroken chain of successors from Francis to Peter is testament to that. Fake anti popes claiming to be the bishop of Rome does not negate the real chosen successor.
fun fact, in ancient Rome, the highest religious office was that of the Pontifex Maximus. That title survived for over 2000 years, as popes still retain Pontifex Maximus as one of their official titles. Julius Caesar was pontifex maximus before he died, meaning that besides being dictator of Rome, he was also the pope
Pope is a different title. Pontifex Maximus just means "ultimate bridge-builder" as priests are supposed to be the bridge between the earthly and the spiritual. Is Xi Jinping the President of the United States just because he uses the word President after George Washington used it?
I just love the jester and the monk playing it! This video was delightful. I have studied this in school, but this was the best I have ever understood it, while being entertained at the same time.
1296? Ironically, in the movie version of Lord of the Rings Bilbo Baggins said that 1296 was a very good year, almost as old as he was at 111. Maybe he meant it was a good year in terms of wine vintage since he was referring to wine in that line. Who knows. lol
The Raid with Bonifaciis is very from in Italy, especially becasue a noble roman allied with Philp slapped the Pope when he was in his palace in Agnagni. We commonly called those episode as "Slap of Angagni"
The way of a story is told and illustrated is sometimes even more fascinating than the story itself.
Agreed!
❤
Someone should get a raise for illustrations.
Tbh, I didn't really follow the story but the animations were great
@@pedroneto5 yep.
These illustrations are unreal, the artists truly do an amazing job making the stories even more interesting
true!
I love how they always mimic the art style of whatever civilization they’re talking about.
Agreed
I love that different videos are animated in different styles too
This specific one reminds me of DOUBLE KING - the music, the floating hands and the comedy.
Really feels like I'm watching a medieval manuscript. The art and animation are beautiful - please, more like this!

Love this medieval art-style animation! Ted-Ed never disappoints
The animation style and artwork is stunning in this video
I agree. I don't care that much about Popes but the art is interesting and imaginative!

Dr. Rollo-Koster was my professor for my first ever college class. She is absolutely brilliant, and I’m so glad to see her work featured here!
Me too! it's really amazing.
@christopherbove1760 Any interesting stories from class?
Same here!
Must have been a wild ride with someone called Rollo-Koster.
This was surprisingly civil. I thought there would be a war.
Not everything was a war😅
@@ElizabethUkeh A lot of history is war, though.
@@ElizabethUkeh this isn't like the 30 years war - the popes were ralatively civil to each other but refused to concede to the other

Yes, like a fairytale.

@@bobbymoss6160 yeah you can put it that way, very interesting and fascinating. 😄
Fellow Catholic here. It’s important to learn the Church history for sure. Every aspect of it.

it was the death and the music players for me
I took a silence moment just to admire the beauty of the illustration, animation, and the sfx.
I am digging this Pythonesque animation, it really fits the subject matter!
This was well said
❤
I just hope their animator didn't die of a heart attack
And there was much rejoicing.
@@MoonThuli And the Lord did grin
I like how they put the execution of Jan Hus at 4:59-5:09. Nice touch, TED-Ed. Nice touch indeed.
The illustrators should be awarded for this! Amazing work of art, history and clever humor. Congratulations
The style for the animation is so obvious yet wonderfully executed. Love this!

I was searching for this comment 😂😂
Nice Ted Ed used a meme in the thumbnail
I KNOW AND ITS GREAT
They did the thing
I was thought no one gonna noticed it
Spidah men
I hope that in a few hundred years people dig up UA-cam and saw this video and say that this is the art of the time.
"...even those who are supposed to be pious are prone to petty power struggles."

This has to be in top 10 among most interesting ted ed videos ever 🤣😅. Kudos to the filmmakers
The art and animation in this video is superb!!
The thumbnail is where the iconic *Office Gun-pointing* meme originated 😂
If you are a pretender to the papacy you're known as the Antipope which is the coolest title out there.
By the same logic, we should call Trump the Antipresident.
I guess they're made of antimatter.

Devout Catholic here. Thanks Ted Ed for this
The illustrations are beautiful!
This illustration was amazing!!!!
The alliteration in this episode is just top notch
The animation and artwork are beautiful. I'm so impressed. Immediate subscribe!
The little sounds the tiny pope makes near the end. So cute and hilarious. lol

Ahh the illustration is amazing!
1:52 i never thought I needed a skeleton and a pope holding hands and dancing but here I am watching this video a second time just for this.
I never thought I would one day witness Popes playing football
WOW! last millennium, when I studied history there were only two popes, where did you find this guy?. how exciting!!
The animations are top notch again thanks
The Vivid evolution of human story telling and illustration in unmatchable! One of real success for our tribes
Terrific explanation! (Also very entertaining graphics!)
The animation in this video is really fun to watch
The music is fire 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Great job with the style
The animation is spectacular. Wow
The illustrations are good, but the music is very annoying
Kept waiting for someone to say “And now for something completely different.”
One of the best animation and storytelling so far
How to make videos with such art. Simply stunning!
I can just hear Blue chanting "POPE FIGHT POPE FIGHT POPE FIGHT!" in the background XD
Osp's blue has done several very interesting videos about the dramas with popes throughout the years they are called "pope fights"
Forget the story, the illustrations were everything. The "Boxing of the Popes" will remain forever in my mind.
The satire, the witty banters, the irony!
As usual, superb narration and illustration! ❤
The munk and the jester playing the flute really got me, hilarious 😂
I hope the animators are being paid well! This is so entertaining to watch
one of the best ted animations ever . who did it.
animation is incredible. give them a raise!!
I have toured the “Palace of the Popes” at Avignon. Avignon also has some interesting old houses of papal “nephews” (sons).
DO MORE LIKE THIS ANIMATION AND SENSE OF HUMOUR PLEASE!!! THIS WAS SOOOO COOL!! I couldn’t get enough!👍🏾😂😂😂
Whoever did the animation made an amazing job!!! Bravo.
Great animation and a great depiction of nothing like a good old pope fight.
The animator had a blast doing the flute players
That feel when you learned all about this a couple years ago in OverlySarcasticProductions' Pope Fights video.
I did not expect the end to mention the Spanish Inquisition!
For me it's the same reason as the why there was 3 Caliphs.
