The correct response is:
Geography influenced the language, politics, and power centers of both the Eastern and Western Church.
This option acknowledges how geographic location influenced key aspects such as the language of religious services (Latin in the West and Greek in the East), as well as the political structures (papal supremacy in the West versus caesaropapism in the East), and the centers of authority (Rome for the West and multiple locations, including Constantinople, for the East).
