Answer
Otto reformed the church in Germany to strengthen royal authority. The church had previously been a powerful force in Germany, and Otto sought to reduce its power. He did this by asserting his right to appoint bishops, and by creating new dioceses that were directly under his control. He also restricted the church's right to hold property, and he imposed taxes on the clergy.
