 Donation of Pepin

This land became known as the Papal States, and it was a significant event in the history of the Catholic Church and the relationship between the Church and secular rulers. The Donation of Pepin was important because it solidified the Pope's temporal power and established the Papal States as a territorial entity, giving the Church significant political and economic influence in central Italy. This event also set a precedent for future relationships between the Church and secular rulers, shaping the power dynamics of medieval Europe.
