Category:Metropolitans of Kiev and all Rus' (claimed or partially recognised)
This category is about people who claimed to hold the ecclesiastical title of Metropolis of Kiev, Galicia and all Rus'. This title refers to an episcopal polity that has been created with varying suffixes at multiple times in different Christian churches, though always maintaining the name of the metropolitan city — Kiev (Kyiv) — which today is located in the modern state of Ukraine. Following the Council of Florence and the Union of Brest, there are now parallel postolic successions: in the Russian Orthodox Church, the Orthodox Church of Ukraine, the Ruthenian Uniate Church and its successors. Claimants to the title that are listed in this category were not recognized by their respective patriarchs.
