Explanation: The Catholic Church, prior to the Reformation, had power and control over just about anything because of the social construct of the people there at the time. Back then what the Pope says, goes--or else. He was basically the Kim Jung-Un of their time.

The Pope along with the people of the church were at the highest section of the social hierarchy of the Ancient Roman Empire, with the Kings following closely behind. Why was this? There was a common concept the kings used to claims their right to power: The "Divine Right of Kings." This basically stated the whoever the king is at the time is so because they were chosen by god. The Pope, however, was received as the closest person to God and therefore had more power than the Kings did because of that. Everyone else was lower than them and had little to no power at all especially in comparison to the Church and the King.
