| | In 1885 the Rumanian Orthodox Church was proclaimed autocephalous, by the Ecumenical Patriarch Joacheim IV, and a Holy Synod constituted. | | | The Bulgarian Church is the first-born daughter of the Ecumenical Patriarchate. | | | Thus, the Orthodox Church is a family of self-governing Churches, which are held together by their unity in faith, their communion in the sacramental life and their spiritual relationship with the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople. |

| | At the end of the 19th century, the patriarch of the Church of the East called the Anglicans "our only friends in the world," as they were the only Christians who did not try to convert them to their denomination. | | | As final note, the Church of the East was bombarded by Western Christians after their discovery in the 19th century who wanted to turn them into Roman Catholics, Presbyterians, etc. They have been called "Protestants of the East" for their dislike of icons (unique among Eastern Christians). | | | These Assyrians (as they call themselves, after they were "rediscovered" by the British in the 19th century who didn't know what else to call them) do not like being called "Nestorians." A group split from the patriarch in the 19th century and became Uniates (Eastern-rite Catholics) who call themselves Chaldeans. |

Doctrine or the actual adherence to the Canons and Orthodox Tradition is not mentioned anywhere. |
