It was undone by a council that reunited the two churches within a generation.
The separation is usually called the East-West Schism.✓Correct answer
It parted the western Latin church from the eastern Greek church as institutions.✓Correct answer
Explanation
What is recorded here is an institutional parting between two church organisations, placed by teaching accounts in the eleventh century and named after the two halves of Christendom it divided. Confusing it with the sixteenth-century movement is the commonest error, because that came five hundred years later and split the western church internally instead of separating west from east.
