Assyrian and Chaldean are related but distinct identities within the broader context of the ancient Mesopotamian peoples. Assyrians are descendants of the ancient Assyrian Empire, while Chaldeans are often associated with the ancient Chaldean dynasty that ruled Babylon. In modern contexts, both groups share cultural and linguistic ties, speaking variations of Aramaic, but they often identify separately based on historical, religious, and cultural factors.

How are the Assyrians and the Chaldeans alike?
Chaldeans are ethnically Assyrians and religiously Chaldean. In modern day, the Assyrian Christianity divided into Assyrian (their own denomination), Assyrian Catholics/Orthodox, and Chaldean Catholics. Chaldean is a denomination of Syriac Christianity (Assyrian/Chaldean/Suryoyo Christianity) that made full communion with the Bishop of Rome and the rest of the Catholic Church. Chaldeans speak a different dialect of Assyrian-Aramaic (exact same alphabet, just few different words). In conclusion, Assyrian is an ethnicity and denomination of Christianity (just as there are ethnic Jews and religious Jews, two different things) and Chaldean is a Catholic denomination of Christianity.

Are Assyrians Eastern Catholics?
The Assyrian Church of the East is not in full communion with the Holy See and the Catholic Church, so the Assyrian Church of the East is not Catholic at all to begin with. However, some parishes that were once under the Assyrian Church of the East have since come into communion with the Chaldean Catholic Church and some of these Chaldean Catholic parishes kept Assyrian in their name, but they are still Chaldean Catholics. Chaldean Catholics are of the Chaldean Rite, which is an Eastern Rite in the Catholic Church, so they, Chaldean Catholics, are also Eastern Catholics. The only Assyrian Catholics are those Catholics that are of the Assyrian ethnic group.
