The squabble

Most of Rome’s leading families stayed loyal to the reform popes, but three took the German side of the squabble. In 1075 a spat grew up between one of the pope’s officials and a member of one of these families, Cencio di Stefano.

I'm wondering what the squabble here means.

Thanks for your help.
