You're question is a little unclear and could mean two things so I'll answer both.

Why did the Orthodox denomination emerge?

The Orthodox emerged when the eastern and western bishops excommunicated each other in a power struggle in 1054. The east became the Orthodox and the west became the Catholics.

Who broke off from the Orthodox?

There was no reformation in the east like there was in the west. There was the separation of the Coptics, but that was simply on their slightly different belief about the nature of the Trinity.
