The key roles are played by the Pope and the bishops, and the question of whether secular governments should play a major role in ecclesiastical appointments has been a major issue for centuries. The [[Investiture Controversy]] in the [[Holy Roman Empire]] was over this question, as was the dispute between [[Gallicanism]] and [[ultramontanism]] in France.

The Roman Catholic Church has many Rites (branches) <ref> https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/resource/56009/the-rites-of-the-catholic-church</ref> The Latin Rite is directly under the Pope. The others recognize the Pope as their shepherd but are administered by either a Patriarch, a Major Archbishop, a Metropolitan, or have some other arrangement. Patriarchs are elected by a synod of bishops of their Rite, and then request ecclesiastical communion from the Pope. Major Archbishops are also elected by a synod of bishops of their Rite, but then are approved by the Pope before they take office. Metropolitans are picked by the Pope from a list given by a synod of bishops. These Rites choose their own bishops. Each has its own cannon law and choose it own bishops; many rites have married catholic priests. These Rites may have their own dioceses in [[Christianity_in_North_America | North America]] and [[Christianity_in_South_America | South America]]. Most people only know of the Latin Rite dioceses. Below is a list of the Rites
