The statement that correctly compares the leadership of the Roman Catholic to and the Eastern Orthodox Churches is "The Roman Catholic Church centralized authority in the Pope, while the Eastern Orthodox Church shared power between the emperor and the patriarch."

For Roman Catholics followers, the "heart" of their Church is the Vatican City, in Rome, where the Pope lives and has its offices. All the authority of the Catholic Church relies on the Pope, who is the maximum figure because Catholics believe that he is the vicar of Christ, the representant of Jesus Christ on Earth. In the case of the Eastern Orthodox Church, the authority is shared between the two most important figures for the Orthodox: the patriarch and the emperor.
