What is the Russian orthodox?
The Russian Orthodox church was brought to Russia in medieval days from Constantinople ( which is Istanbul today) when it was the centre of the Orthodox Byzantine church. Russian lettering can still be found in the Hagia Sophia which was a cathedral there but is now a mosque. These early Russian traders and soldiers were very impressed by what they found there and brought their new christian faith back up the trading routes to the north. The whole state of Russia eventually became Orthodox. The Russian Orthodox church in exile came into being to care for the faithful who found themselves outside of their Russian homeland following the revolution. St.Tikhon and and others in the Church condemned the Bolshevik state authorities and thousands of Orthodox were imprisoned. Many fled to other countries, France in particular had an active Russian church and others were founded around the world in Britain and the US. The Russian Orthodox cared especially for Russians forced to flee persecution who were outside of Russia. Amanda Actually, Russian Orthodoxy has been part of Russia for much longer than that. Czar Nicholas II and his grandparents were all Orthodox. Once the revolution got going it went underground. Russian Orthodoxy has been around for hundreds of years.

Is the Ukrainian Orthodox Church in union with the Russian Orthodox Church?
As with many questions, it depends . . . the Russian Orthodox Church is headed by the Patriarch of Moscow and All Russia (the Russian Orthodox Church is often referred to as "the Moscow Patriarchate," or simply, "MP"). By "All Russia," of course, is meant all the lands that have been traditionally included in a Russian State. Ukraine has been included in Russian States for the past several hundred years. Ukraine only gained independence after the fall of the Soviet Union in the early 1990s. The Russian Orthodox Church has several hundred, if not thousands, of parishes in the Ukraine, under the designation of "The Ukrainian Orthodox Church under the jurisdiction of the Moscow Patriarchate." This jurisdiction is rather loose-the Ukrainian Church under the MP is considered an "Autonomous Church"-all the Bishops, as well as the Metropolitan (head of this Church) are voted on in Ukraine by Ukrainian Bishops; the MP has the "right of refusal" if a candidate is considered unworthy, but in practice, this happens very rarely. So, the Ukrainian Orthodox Church/Moscow Patriarchate, is indeed in union with the Russian Orthodox Church.
