Patriarchate of the East Indies
† Catholic_Encyclopedia ► Patriarchate of the East Indies
In consequence of an agreement between the
Holy See and the Portuguese Government in 1886, settling difficulties that had arisen from the Goan Schism (
see ARCHDIOCESE OF GOA), the jurisdiction of the
Archbishop of Goa was considerably restricted. Indeed, one of the causes of the Schism had been that both the
Archbishop of Goa and the Bishop of
Macao had been exercising acts of jurisdiction within the vicariates Apostolic of the British East Indies, though these had been already expressly withdrawn from their jurisdiction. The Portuguese Government had sided with the
archbishop and his supporters against Rome, claiming a royal
jus patronatus over the whole of the Church of India (see PADROADO). As compensation for his shorn jurisdiction the
Archbishop of Goa was given the title of
patriarch. The suffragan sees of Goa are
Damão, Cochin,
Macao, Mylapur, and the praelatura nullius of
Mozambique.
