| | Ethiopian Orthodox Church |
 | | The Ethiopian Orthodox Church is one of the five so-called monophysite churches, characterised by their rejection of the Council of Chalcedon (451). |  | | The church is estimated to have 22 million adherents in Ethiopia. |  | | In contrast to Chalcedon's doctrine that Christ is one person existing in two natures the Ethiopian Orthodox Church affirms that Christ's humanity cannot be separated from his divinity. |

 | | The Church of St. George is a monolithic church in Lalibela. |  | | The Coptic Church refused to recognize the election and enthronement of Abune Tekle Haimanot on the grounds that the Synod of the Ethiopian Church had not removed Abune Tewophilos and that the government had not publicly acknowledged his death, and he was thus still legitimate Patriarch of Ethiopia. |  | | The Coptic and Ethiopian Churches reached an agreement that led to autocephaly for the Ethiopian Church on 13 July 1948. |

 | | However, as the church was the state religion, His Majesty the Emperor was considered the temporal (earthly) head of the church under Christ. |  | | Prior to the revolution of 1974, the Patriarch was the spiritual (heavenly) head of the Orthodox church in Ethiopia under Christ. |  | | Following the the military siezure of power in 1974 and their abolishment of the monarchy and the disestablishment of the Orthodox Church as the state religion, the Patriarch became de facto both spiritual and temporal head of the church. |

| | Ethiopian Church |
 | | The Ethiopian Orthodox Church is of interest to historians and to sociologists of religion because of its peculiar circumstances. |  | | However, the Oriental Churches cling to and affirm the Orthodox doctrine of the Trinity as articulated in the first Ecumenical Council at Nicaea in A.D. 325 and confirmed by the Second Council held at Constantinople in A.D. In this sense the claim of these Churches to the title Orthodox is justified. |  | | One is that its theology was rejected by both the Roman Catholic and the Eastern Orthodox Churches at the Council of Chalcedon in A.D. The second is its political and geographical separation from Europe by the Muslim conquests in North Africa in the 7th and 8th centuries. |

Yet almost all of the analysis of Orthodox Christianity as practiced by Ethiopians has focused on the Amhara and Tigray. |  | | By the mid-twentieth century, some educated Amhara and Tigray had developed skepticism, not so much of doctrine-- although that also occurred--as of the church's political and economic role. |
