Английская Википедия:Chaldean Catholic Archeparchy of Urmyā
Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:No footnotes The Chaldean Catholic Archeparchy of Urmiā[1] (also spelled Urmia or called Rezayeh; informally called Urmyā of the Chaldeans) is a Metropolitan archeparchy (Eastern Catholic archdiocese) of the Chaldean Catholic Church (Syro-Oriental Rite in Syriac language) with seeing in Urmia, West Azerbaijan Province, north-west Iran.
Its cathedral archiepiscopal see is the Cathedral of St. Mary the Mother of God, in Urmia, Iran.
History
Established on 4 September 1890 as the Metropolitan Archeparchy (archdiocese) of Urmyā, on territory previously without proper Ordinary for the rite's particular church sui iuris.
Province
Its ecclesiastical province comprises the Metropolitan's own archeparchy and a single suffragan, the Chaldean Catholic Eparchy of Salmas. Currently, they are both maintained by the same Bishop, and population data for the suffragan are put down under the Archeparchy of Urmia. In effect, the Eparchy of Salmas is part of the Archeparchy of Urmia.
