Answer:

who had the right to choose bishops .

Step-by-step explanation:

Conflict between Pope Gregory VII and Holy Roman Emperor Henry IV is one of the greatest conflicts between the church and the state in history.

Emperor believed that his authority on the territory of the Empire is greater than the one of Pope, including even the mentioned question.

It is interesting that in the conflict that arose from this, Pope managed to overpower the Emperor.
