Overview
Catholicism is the branch of Christianity which has remained loyal to the Pope in the face of a number of major historical schisms, including Protestantism (started by Martin Luther) and Anglicanism.
Catholicism is officially (and by definition) governed by the Catholic Church; a the closest non-Catholic variant is Episcopalianism, which shares many of the same rituals and items of doctrine but is independent of the Catholic Church.
