Cluniac Reforms

The Cluniac Reforms were a movement in the 11th century. They were changes made to the way the Catholic Church worked. The most important change was that the monks in the Church had to follow a set of rules called The Rule of Benedict. This Rule of Benedict said they had to be obedient and spend their time praying and helping the community. The Cluniac Reforms also meant that the Church became more powerful and had more money. The Church wanted to be more organized and efficient and to have more control over what happened in the church. The Cluniac Reforms helped to make the Church richer, stronger, and more influential in the world.
