The Oriental Church broke away from the Eastern Orthodox Church during the 4th Ecumenical Council in Chalcedon. They differ from the Orthodox Church in that they are Monophysites, meaning they believe Christ only has one Nature which is divine and not two natures divine and human like the rest of Christendom.

There's no such thing as Western Orthodox

However, theoretically, there should be no difference in faith; only in culture

Are the Eastern Churches different than Catholic Church?

Catholic AnswerWell, some of them are different. You see, when the schism happened, each Eastern Church split into two, half stayed with Rome, and half left. So the ones that stayed with Rome (which are called the Uniate Churches) ARE Catholic Churches. The Catholic Church's largest Rite is the Latin Rite, but it also contains many other Rites, there are nine main Rites: Latin, Byzantine, Armenian, Chaldean, Coptic, Ethiopic, Malabar, Maronite, and Syrian rites. All of the Rites except the Latin and Maronite are also used by Christians who are no longer Catholics.
