Holy Saviour Of The World Cathedral, Olinda
The Holy Saviour of the World Cathedral () Also Olinda Cathedral is a Catholic church located in Olinda, in the state of Pernambuco, home of the archdiocese of Olinda and Recife in Brazil. The first building built for worship in the present site of the headquarters was a simple chapel. It was raised between 1537 and 1540 and dedicated to Jesus Christ as Savior of the world. The mud, a material of little resistance used, caused that the chapel soon began to decay, and was replaced by another temple in 1584, with several secondary chapels erected by initiative of Frei Antonio Barreiro, third bishop of Brazil. In 1676, it was elevated to the condition of cathedral with the creation of the respective diocese.

Diocese Of Alagôas
In church governance, a diocese or bishopric is the ecclesiastical district under the jurisdiction of a bishop. History In the later organization of the Roman Empire, the increasingly subdivided provinces were administratively associated in a larger unit, the diocese (Latin ''dioecesis'', from the Greek term διοίκησις, meaning "administration"). Christianity was given legal status in 313 with the Edict of Milan. Churches began to organize themselves into dioceses based on the civil dioceses, not on the larger regional imperial districts. These dioceses were often smaller than the provinces. Christianity was declared the Empire's official religion by Theodosius I in 380. Constantine I in 318 gave litigants the right to have court cases transferred from the civil courts to the bishops. This situation must have hardly survived Julian, 361–363. Episcopal courts are not heard of again in the East until 398 and in the West in 408. The quality of these courts was ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Territorial Prelature
A territory is an area of land, sea, or space, belonging or connected to a particular country, person, or animal. In international politics, a territory is usually a geographic area which has not been granted the powers of self-government, i.e. an area that is under the jurisdiction of a sovereign state. As a subdivision, a territory in most countries is an organized division of an area that is controlled by a country but is not formally developed into, or incorporated into, a political unit of that country, which political units are of equal status to one another and are often referred to by words such as "provinces", "regions", or "states". In its narrower sense, it is "a geographic region, such as a colonial possession, that is dependent on an external government." Etymology The origins of the word "territory" begin with the Proto-Indo-European root ''ters'' ('to dry'). From this emerged the Latin word ''terra'' ('earth, land') and later the Latin word ''territorium'' ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
