By definition, yes; all Catholic Churches are Roman Catholic.However, there are two sects. There are those in union with Rome(the Vatican/Pope) and those not in union with Rome. Those in union with Rome follow the changes made in Vatican II.Catholic Answer:If they are not in full union with Rome, they are NOT Catholic.

Just about every state capital is a copy of Roman art. The federal capital and congress has architectural elements influenced by Rome. Arenas were first built by Rome, buildings with domes were also first built by Rome. Many churches are copied from Catholic Churches through out Italy. A new Catholic Church was built in my area with the dome and bell tower just like the Roman churches. Everywhere you look you will find the influence of Roman art and architecture.

What is the difference between the Greek Orthodox Church and the Armenian Catholic Church?
The Armenian Catholic Church is an Eastern Catholic Church in communion with the Pope in Rome. What that means is that a member of a local Catholic Church and a member of the Armenian Catholic Church are essentially the same. The Apostle Peter is considered to be the first Pope and founder of Roman Catholicism. Tradition tells us that the Eastern churches were formed by others of Jesus's Apostles after his death and resurrection. It is interesting to note that many of the Eastern churches have been in and out of communion with Rome, and that most if not all of the Eastern churches (19+ from different parts of the world) have counterpart churches with virtually the same traditions which are not in communion with Rome. Roman Catholics can attend Masses and take Communion in Eastern Catholic Churches and vice versa, but the liturgies (order of the Mass) will be very different.
