What differences do the Catholics and Orthodox have with funerals?
Catholics and Orthodox Christians have distinct funeral practices shaped by their theological beliefs and traditions. Catholics typically emphasize the importance of the Mass, including the Eucharist, during funeral services, and they often hold wakes prior to the funeral. In contrast, Orthodox funerals focus on a liturgical service that includes a series of prayers and hymns, with a strong emphasis on the resurrection and the eternal life of the deceased. Additionally, Orthodox practices often involve a three-day mourning period and specific rituals related to burial and memorial services.

Which religious order preserved the Bible during the Dark ages by writing out copies by hand?
Bibles were copied by a variety of monastic organizations that were especially set up for the purpose, but there was no one group that did this. There was not even one Church that did it. The Book of Kells was a product of a Celtic Orthodox Church that was only loosely affiliated with the Roman Church, and there were other Churches, notably the Oriental Orthodox and Coptic Orthodox Churches, which did copied their own Bibles. After the Great Schism of 1054, the Eastern Orthodox Church maintained bible production in Greek and the Roman Catholic Church did it in Latin.
What different churches were there in medieval times?

Notable of these were the Catharists, against whom the Roman Catholics launched the Albigensian Crusade. But the list of groups challenging the main Church was long.

What is the old name of Egypt?
Early names for Upper and Lower Egypt were Ta-Sheme'awand Ta-Mehew. Another name for ancient Egypt was Kemet ("black land"). The Greeks gave Egypt its widely-used name (Agyptos) and the modern Arabic name Misr is from the Semitic Mitzrayim). During its period as a Christian nation (Roman and Byzantine era), it was called Copt, and the language is referred to as Coptic. Christianity was bought to Egypt by St. Mark around 42 AD. After the conquest of Egypt by the Sunni Arabs in 639 AD , Coptic was not allowed as a language. (It is, however, still in use by the Coptic Orthodox church as a liturgical language. The church grew from the time of St. Mark and was split from the other Orthodox churches by the Council of Chalcedon in 451 AD.)

From a time before the fall of the Roman Empire, there were always also other, smaller church organizations, such as the Coptic Orthodox and Oriental Orthodox Churches.
