The Orthodox and Roman Catholic churches have differences in beliefs and practices. One key difference is the understanding of the role of the Pope. In the Roman Catholic Church, the Pope is considered the head of the Church and infallible in matters of faith and morals. In the Orthodox Church, there is no central authority figure like the Pope, and decisions are made collectively by bishops. Another difference is in the understanding of the Holy Spirit's procession, with the Orthodox believing it proceeds only from the Father, while Catholics believe it proceeds from both the Father and the Son. Additionally, there are differences in liturgical practices and the use of icons in worship.
The Orthodox Churches and the Catholic Church were once united. The Orthodox Churches separated from the Catholic Church over political and doctrinal differences.

The Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, Coptic Orthodox, and Oriental Orthodox Churches practice infant baptism, as do Anglicans, some Presbyterians and Lutherans, and various other Protestant denominations, including many 'non-denominational' churches.

the Eastern Orthodox Church and the Roman Catholic Church
The Eastern (Orthodox) and Western (Catholic) churches are the two main branches of Christianity. The Eastern Church is composed of national churches that are in communion with the Patriarch of Constantinople, while the Western Church is under the jurisdiction of the Pope in Rome.

No, Orthodox churches are where persons of Greek or Russian Orthodox faith worship. Like the Church of England, the Orthodox also separated from the Roman Catholic Church on matters of doctrine.
The five main types of churches are Roman Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, Protestant, Anglican, and Pentecostal. Each type has its own distinctive beliefs, practices, and structures.

Oh, dude, like a bunch of churches split off from the Catholic Church over the years. You've got the Eastern Orthodox Church, the Protestant churches, and even some smaller groups like the Anglican Church. So, yeah, the Catholic Church has kind of been the parent to a whole family tree of different churches.

The two churches were the Eastern Orthodox and the Roman Catholic
The catholic church is sometimes considered the collection of churches that developed out of the Great Schism (namely, the Roman Catholic Church and the Eastern Orthodox Church). Although I have never heard someone use the term "catholic orthodox church," I would consider it to be referring to the Eastern Orthodox Christian religion.
