First of all, to correct this: the period of feudal society in Western Europe was very long, but the time when the Pope and the Church ruled the largest, widest and most authoritative period was in Europe (mainly Western Europe) during the Middle Ages (c. 476 AD, 1453 AD). From the Renaissance (first in Italy in the 13th century, from the mid-14th century until the 17th century), papal rule slowly declined.
And the Renaissance was also a ...... feudal societyFeudal society ended after the capitalist industrial revolution in Europe.
To get to the point, in the Middle Ages, the rights of the pope (church) were divided into secular and religious, but these two rights were only subjective, and objectively they had similar or complementary functions......
Secular: The enthronement of kings in the countries of Europe (mainly Western Europe) must be approved by the Pope, and the oracle must be issued! If there is no oracle, the king will not have authority over his country, there will be rebellions and even riots!
The Pope can remove a sitting king. The kings of European countries had to get married or divorced with the approval of the Pope and issue an oracle! Otherwise it is listed as invalid!
All the countries of Europe have to act according to the face of the pope, even if it is a war between European countries, it must also look at the face of the pope, if the pope does not let it be beaten, whoever starts the station first will be excommunicated......
Religious rights: The Pope can excommunicate nations, groups, parties, and individuals within his jurisdiction! If an individual is disfellowship, it means that the person will not be able to enter the kingdom of heaven and will not have eternal life unless he or she is re-......establishedIf it is a state, not only will you not get the right to eternal life religiously, but secularly speaking, other countries can wage crusade wars against you, burning, killing and looting are approved, and if the pope starts a crusade at that time, then the excommunicated enemies or infidels killed in the war are honorable, and the more you kill, the more you love the Lord (of course, this is absurd and superstitious, so that time is also called the Dark Age of Europe).
To sum up, the Pope was in charge of all of Europe at that time, which means that he was the biggest king in Europe and in all Catholic countries! So he (the Pope and the Catholic Church he is in charge of) is the greatest feudal lord and spiritual pillar!
That's about it, and there are many others, but I've only briefly found a few of the main ones to prove the authority of the pope! Hope it helps......Jesus loves you

The concept of landlord, king and emperor is not the same.
You see, the stories of princes and princesses in the Middle Ages in Europe are all about "there was an old king", not "emperor". And Britain, Spain, Germany, France, etc. are all "kingdoms", and the ruler is "king", English king.
The concept of emperor and emperor is different, such as Julius Caesar, Ottoman the Great, Napoleon the Great, and the English name is emperor.
The emperor can control the king to a certain extent, and there is only one pope, that is, the pope, and the area where the pope has influence includes the kingdom. The rulers of kingdoms are "crowned" by the Pope of Rome when they enter the political arena.
So in the Middle Ages in Europe, there was only one pope, and under the pope was the king, and many countries had a pope.
In this case, you can analogy the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period in China, a bit like. There is only one "Son of Heaven" in China, and the Son of Heaven divides the princes into various places, and after the strength of each prince increases greatly, he is called the king, and there are such kings as the kings of Qi, Wei, and Qin, and then each "king" is nominally under the jurisdiction of the "Son of Heaven". Of course, there are all kinds of differences, but you can roughly understand it this way.

The Pope's wordsGenerally speaking, there is only one in Europe, and that is the Pope. The rest are priests sent by the Pope to serve as heads of the churches in various countries.

Of course, there is only one, the Catholic Church is all over Europe, but the seat of the papal pacropolis is Rome, and the rest of the regions are only cardinals, Boniface VIII famously said "The church has only one head, unlike the devil who has two heads." ”。The only exception was when France once turned against the Pope and imprisoned the Pope in Avignon.
Calvin was also called the Pope of the Reformation when he established a theocratic republic in Switzerland.

What do you think, the Pope is the emperor of Catholicism, the pinnacle of power in the entire Catholic world, there is only one pope in the whole of Europe, and it does not belong to any country, but the entire Catholic world belongs to him, he is the ** man of God in the world, the administrator and ruler of Catholicism, and even the abolition of European kings in the Middle Ages.
What you are asking is not right, one is royal power, the other is divine power, in medieval Europe, divine power was higher than royal power, don't talk about who has a pope in the future.
The Pope resides in the Vatican, the holiest site of the world's Catholic religion and the center of theocracy.

Speaking of the Pope, we know that it is the religious leader of the Catholic Church. Nowadays, there are not many Catholic countries in the world, mainly Spain, Portugal and some countries in Latin America. And the Pope is also often exposed to a lot of scandals at the moment.
But in the Middle Ages, the pope had absolute authority in Europe.
In medieval Europe, before the religious reform, the majority of Europe believed in Catholicism, and a minority believed in Orthodox Christianity. The Pope of Catholicism is the Pope, and the Pope has absolute authority in the Catholic faith. He had the right to appoint and dismiss bishops in various places, and to collect tithes from Catholic districts.
Coronate kings and emperors. It can be said that if you want to be the boss of the country, you must be recognized by the pope, and if the pope does not recognize you, it can be said that you will never become the boss. But as the most powerful figure of the time, how did the Pope produce the silver cover?
In fact, if you look at the other major religions, the leaders of Buddhism and Islam are elected to some extent, and the popes in Europe are also elected. Generally speaking, after the death of a pope, there will be an ecumenical church to elect a new pope. But not all people are eligible to be elected.
It is mainly cardinals who have this qualification. Generally there is a candidate. Everyone entered the Gandor Palace and prayed behind closed doors, asking the Holy Spirit for instructions, and then voted by secret ballot against each other, and according to the different results, it may be confirmed by multiple votes, and finally the new pope is elected.
When a new pope is elected, white smoke rises from the chimney, and the pope appears to receive blessings. If it is the black smoke that the pope has not yet been elected, then the election will continue.
Let's look at the process, first by the body that was elected, and then by the elector, or by secret ballot. It can be said that these are relatively democratic procedures. Although there are many restrictions, the whole is democratic.
Later, when European countries implemented democracy, this was also a basis, roughly that God's place has already begun elections, why we have not started elections in the world.
However, the general pope can't be a few years old, and the pope is for life. And the new pope is also relatively old after the election, so he can't do it for a few years.

Pepin's consecration: Pepin's Carolingian dynasty was supported by the Pope, who crowned Pepin in 754. In order to repay the pope, Pepin led his troops to attack the Lombards who threatened the pope, thus establishing the papal rule over the proarchate of Rome and Ravenna, and laying the foundation of the Papal States.
The history is called "Peping dedication to soil".
