Can you please tell me how the following Churches differ from each other:
  • Eastern Orthodox Churches (Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople and Orthodox Churches of Albania, Alexandria, Antioch, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Lands and Slovakia, Georgia, Greece, Jerusalem, Poland, Romania, Russia, and Serbia);
  • Holy Apostolic Catholic Assyrian Church of the East;
  • Oriental Orthodox Churches (Armenian Apostolic Church, Coptic Orthodox Church of Alexandria, Eritrean Orthodox Tewahedo Church, Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church, Indian (Malankara) Orthodox Syrian Church, and Syriac Orthodox Church)?
 
They differ in their Christology.

The Eastern Orthodox hold to the same dyphysite Christology as Catholics.

The Oriental Orthodox are Miaphysite.

Assyrians are Nestorian, a form of dyphysite belief that holds the humanity and godhood of Christ are completely seperate.

Despite both the Assyrians and the EO/RC being dyphysite, the beliefs of the EO/RC are closer to that of the OO.
