Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The fall of the Byzantine Empire in 1453 caused the dispersal of many Orthodox Christians throughout the world. The only surviving proponent of Orthodox Christianity was the Russian Orthodox Church, which became the leading religious institution of Russia and spread to other parts of the world over time. The other options, such as the Roman Catholic Church, Greek Orthodox Church, Syrian Christian Church, and Egyptian Coptic Church, all had their own branches of Christianity but did not continue the tradition of Orthodox Christianity after the fall of the Byzantine Empire.
