This covers a lot more than can be answered sufficiently in a forum like this one. Your best bet is to go to the website of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America, which has a page giving an introduction to the Greek Orthodox faith (link is under "Related Links"). Start with the first link, "What is the Greek Orthodox Church?", and work through the other links in the middle of the page. After you've looked at these, you can get more information through the various links on the left side of the page. If, after looking through these, you still have questions, your best bet would be to contact a Greek Orthodox parish near you and ask the priest. The Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America has a parish finder on their website (also linked under "Related Links").

When was the Orthodox Church invented.?

That's a bit difficult to explain. There was one church called 'The Catholic Orthodox church" it split into Orthodox and Catholic. However there are two Orthodox churches which both preserve the ancient teachings and traditions of the original church. Except have a different view of the divintiy of christ. The Eastern "Oriental' Orthodox church believes that christ has two natures but united while the Eastern Orthodox church believes that chirst has two natures but seperate. However,they both are the original church and have not changed the apostolic traditions. So the Roman Catholic Church and Orthodox Churches are equally old since they were both founded by one of the apostles,however the Orthodox church stayed true to the original churches beliefs and traditions. But they became referred to as "Orthodox" in 451 AD (Eastern "Oriental' Orthodox) and in 1054 (Eastern Orthodox)
