Traded goods and growth of the merchant class
	
Centralized political authority
	
Increased food production in Europe

GPT-5 mini · Accepted Answer

- Centralized political authority — monarchs and the Papacy reinforced each other's power (coronations, divine-right claims, Church law and bureaucracy helped legitimize and organize royal rule).  
- Spread Christianity throughout Europe — they cooperated on conversions, missionary activity, church-building, and policies (including the Crusades and royal support for bishops/monasteries) to expand Christian influence.

The other two (trade/merchant class and increased food production) are not direct results of papal–monarchical cooperation.
