Metropolis (religious jurisdiction)

A metropolis is a see or city whose bishop is the


metropolitan of a province. Metropolises, historically,
have been important cities in their provinces.
In the Eastern Orthodox churches, a metropolis is a
type of diocese, along with eparchies, exarchates, and
archdioceses.[1] A similar system exists in the Roman
Catholic Church.
