Eritrean Orthodox Tewahedo Church (Wikipedia)

Wikipedia

Wikipedia's article on the Eritrean Orthodox Tewahedo Church, read directly for this pass, which states the church was given autocephaly by Shenouda III of Alexandria, pope of the Coptic Orthodox Church, after Eritrea gained its independence from Ethiopia in 1993, and separately covers the 2005 to 2007 removal of Patriarch Abune Antonios.

Facts
Assessment
Reliability Tier
3
A community-edited tertiary reference, not peer-reviewed, but the 1993 autocephaly grant date is settled twentieth-century history independently corroborated against the already-cited Britannica source on the same fact, with no live dispute over the year.
Notes
Cited for the 1993 autocephaly grant date, confirming when the church's separation is recorded as having begun.
