context_page_description: The Eastern Orthodox Church, like the Catholic Church, claims to be the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church.
  The term Western Orthodoxy is sometimes used to denominate what is technically a vicariate within the Antiochian Orthodox and the Russian Orthodox Churches and thus a part of the Eastern Orthodox Church as that term is defined here. The term "Western Orthodox Church" is disfavored by members of that vicariate.
  In the 5th century, Oriental Orthodoxy separated from Chalcedonian Christianity, well before the 11th century Great Schism. It should not be confused with Eastern Orthodoxy.
