these are groups and sub groups, in order of largest to smallest.

actually id have to disagree with you on this one acid,

orthodox is not part of catholicism

orthodox means tradition belief
the catholic side upgraded their beliefs. I believe Constantine added Paganism to Catholicism to make it newer. However, Orthodox, stayed with the old belief of Christianity, which, was the religion that everyon from Christianity had before the Byzantines made their Eastern empire stay with the old beliefs and they themselves made up newer beliefs for Christianity.

And also, most of the Christian icons from Orthodoxy are older and the paintings of how the saints look are more traditional. :)

So, therefore, it would be

Monotheism--Christianity WHICH divided into the old believers of orthodox, and the more contemporary Catholicism. :)
