After which Ecumenical Councils did Photios' contested councils mark the end of unity?

  • The first five Ecumenical Councils

  • The first six Ecumenical Councils

  • The first seven Ecumenical Councils

  • The first eight Ecumenical Councils

Answer

The end of unity among Eastern Christians came after the first seven Ecumenical Councils, which were held between the 4th and 8th centuries. These councils established the doctrines of Christianity and the authority of the Pope. Photios' contested councils, which were held in the 9th century, challenged the authority of the Pope and led to the split between the Eastern Orthodox Church and the Roman Catholic Church.
