The Orthodox Church played a crucial role in the development of alphabets, particularly the Glagolitic and Cyrillic scripts, to facilitate the spread of Christianity among Slavic peoples. By creating these alphabets, missionaries like Saints Cyril and Methodius aimed to translate religious texts and The Bible into Slavic languages, making the teachings of Christianity more accessible to local populations. This not only helped in religious conversion but also contributed to the cultural and literary development of Slavic nations. Thus, the invention of these alphabets was driven by both spiritual and cultural motivations.
