Eastern Orthodoxy In Spain
Spain is not a traditionally Orthodox country, as after the Great Schism of 1054 the Spanish Christians (at that time controlling the northern half of the Iberian Peninsula) remained within the sphere of influence of the Church of Rome. The Hispanic Church was part of the undivided Christian church for the first ten centuries of its history until the Great East-West Schism of 1054. Since then, Spain has remained with the Catholic Church of Rome, which separated from the other ancient Orthodox patriarchates. The number of Orthodox adherents in the country began to increase in the early 1990s, when Spain experienced an influx of migrant workers from Eastern Europe. The dominant nationality among Spanish Orthodox adherents is Romanian (as many as 0.7 million people), with Bulgarians, Russians, Ukrainians, Moldovans, and others bringing the total to about 1 million. The number of Orthodox adherents from Spain and other countries that are not traditionally Orthodox has seen an in ...
