The correct answer is A. As a result of the Great Schism of 1378, the popes gained greater power throughout all of Europe.

Explanation:

Between 1309 and 1377, the papacy's residence was changed from Rome to Avignon, France, as Pope Clement V was taken (without debate) by the French king to reside in Avignon. In 1378, Pope Gregory XI would return to Rome, where he would die. The Italian population wanted the papacy to be reestablished in Rome. It was then elected Urban VI, of Italian origin. However, he proved to be a very authoritarian pope, so that a considerable amount of the College of Cardinals would nullify his vote and a new conclave was held, being elected Clement VII, who resided in Avignon. Thus began the Schism, in which the Pope resided in Rome and the Antipope resided in Avignon, both claiming for themselves the power over the Catholic Church. Later, another Antipope would emerge in Pisa. The schism ended at the Council of Constance in 1417, when the papacy was unified and definitively established in Rome.
