Branches · 6
Many paths. Shared histories.
6 branches recorded under Eastern Orthodoxy, one step down, as the records give them.
What this means
Association and branching, in both directions. Traditions overlap, split and re-merge; this is not a single-origin family tree, and being listed under another tradition is not the same as being recognised by it.
Does not imply a clean single-origin family tree · that the parent recognises the branch

What this means
Records whose own statements name this tradition — 190 of them. Computed from those statements, not curated here, and ordered by how widely each is linked across Wikipedia — those at home in the tradition’s collection first, and those with a picture first among the leading few — rather than by significance to the tradition.
An affiliation recorded on a person is a third party’s record, often of one period of a life — not that person’s belief at every point in it.

Festivals and practices · 1
Festivals, holy days and practices
What this means
Records whose own statements name this tradition — 1 of them. Computed from those statements, not curated here, and ordered by how widely each is linked across Wikipedia — those at home in the tradition’s collection first, and those with a picture first among the leading few — rather than by significance to the tradition.
A holy day’s day is the one its record states it is observed on. A festival recurs, so it has no date on the historical clock, and one named here is not evidence of when or where it was kept.
Imported from Wikidata. Nothing here has been read by an editor.
The Christianity collection holds 235 festivals and practices in all; 234 of them do not name Eastern Orthodoxy on their own records. See them in the collection

A ruling house that names a tradition is a family’s recorded affiliation, not its subjects’ practice; an office is a line of holders, not a family.

Connections
How Eastern Orthodoxy connects
Grouped by the kind of relationship, because a successor is not a son and a shared symbol is not an influence.
Affiliation 1
What this means
Association with a tradition or school. Traditions branch, overlap and re-merge; this is not a clean single-origin tree.
Does not imply personal belief at every point in a life · the practice of a population
Imported from Wikidata unless a tile says otherwise. Nothing here has been read by an editor.
Documented influence 1
What this means
A transmission argued from evidence. Not shared symbols, and not a short path through a database.
