Summary
This is a world map of the canonical territories of the autocephalous and autonomous Orthodox jurisdictions. Where a certain territory is disputed (either between two different churches or one church claims it as its territory while others consider it part of the diaspora), I have shown it shaded.
The Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople also claims all territories not belonging to any other autocephalous or autonomous jurisdictions - in other words, the grey areas on this map. Other jurisdictions dispute this claim. Thus, all the grey areas could be shaded in gold. However, to avoid confusion, I have chosen to leave them simply grey.
There is one autonomous Orthodox jurisdiction - the Church of Sinai - which is not shown on this map, because its territory is too small to be visible on a world map. It is limited to one monastery and several dependencies in the Sinai peninsula.
