Who are the Christians in Lebanon?
Today, it is estimated that the Christian population makes up about 39% of the total population.
- The maronites are the largest of the Christian groups. They have had a long and continuous association with the roman catholic church, but have their own patriarch, liturgy, and customs. Traditionally they had good relations with the Western world, especially France and the Vatican. They traditionally dominated the Lebanese government, and the President of Lebanon is always Maronite. Their influence in later years has diminished, due to their relative decrease in numbers, but also due to the Syrian occupation of Lebanon, which generally benefited Shi'a and other Muslim communities, and was resisted by most Maronites. Today the Maronites are believed to compose nearly 25.2% of the population, scattered around the Lebanese countryside but with heavy concentrations on Mount Lebanon and in Beirut.
- The second largest Christian group is the Greek Orthodox. The church exists in many parts of the Arab world and Greek Orthodox Christians have often been noted for pan-Arab or pan-Syrian leanings; it has had less dealings with Western countries than the Maronites. They are believed to constitute about 7.8% of the total population, not counting the Palestinian Greek Orthodox community.
- The remaining Christian churches are thought to constitute another 9% (350,000) of the population (Greek Catholics i.e. Melkites about 200,000, Armenian Apostolic, Armenian Catholic, Syriac Orthodox, Syriac Catholic, Assyrians, Protestants) with no single group over 5% of the total population.

Lebanon was a creation of the French colonizers. During Ottoman times, current Lebanon was part (but not all) of the Vilayet of Beirut (which extended into what is now northern Israel, and the Syrian Alawite State). Because of the historic relationship between the Maronite Catholics and their fellow Catholic Leaders in France and the Papacy, Mount Lebanon was given semi-autonomy in the Ottoman Empire as the Mutasarrifat of Mount Lebanon and was under a somewhat different administration as the rest of Lebanon (Tripoli, Beirut, Tyre).
When the French took control of the area in 1919 as a result of the Treaty of Versailles and the Sykes-Picot Agreement, they chose to merge the Maronite Catholic areas in the Anti-Lebanon mountains with the nearby coastal regions that had large Sunni and Shiite Muslim populations and create "Greater Lebanon". It is these borders that have stayed to the present.
