  Exarchate of Ravenna - LoveToKnow 1911   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
EXARCHATE OF RAVENNA, the official name of that part of Italy which remained in the allegiance of the Roman emperors at Constantinople from the closing years of the 6th to the middle of the 8th century.
The organization of the exarchate is placed by modern investigators under the reign of the emperor Maurice (582-602), when the imperial government began to recognize the necessity of providing for a new and a long struggle.
In its internal history the exarchate was subject to the influences which were everywhere, in central and western Europe at least, leading to the subdivision of sovereignty and the establishment of feudalism.

 Exarchate of Ravenna - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Exarchate of Ravenna was not the sole Byzantine province in Italy.
His ally Pippin the Younger, King of the Franks, donated the conquered lands of the former exarchate to the Papacy in 756; this donation, which was confirmed by his son Charlemagne in 774, marked the beginning of the temporal power of the popes as the Patrimony of Saint Peter.
So the Exarchate disappeared, and the small remnants of the imperial possessions on the mainland, Naples and Calabria, passed under the authority of the Catapan of Italy, and when Sicily was conquered by the Arabs in the 9th century the remnants were erected into the themes of Calabria and Langobardia.

The Council of Chalcedon (451), which gave special authority to the see of Constantinople, as being "the residence of the emperor and the Senate," still did not use the term "patriarch", but in its ninth canon still spoke only of "exarchs".

With his mouth he gives laws to kings and nations as an Oracle; and pretends to Infallibility, and that his dictates are binding to the whole world; which is to be a Prophet in the highest degree.
In the eighth century, by rooting up and subduing the Exarchate of Ravenna, the kingdom of the Lombards, and the Senate and Dukedom of Rome, he acquired Peter’s Patrimony out of their dominions; and thereby rose up as a temporal Prince or King, or horn of the fourth Beast.
These are his three conquests, and he was to hold them of the Emperor for the use of the Church sub integritate, entirely, without the Emperor’s medling therewith, or with the jurisdiction or power of the Pope therein, unless called thereto in certain cases.

The 1870 settlement provided that a diocese should be allowed to transfer to the exarchate if two-thirds of its population voted in favour to such a move, but it said nothing on the question of where the exarch was to reside and have his headquarters.
The exarchate was condemned for the sin of phyletism, that is maintaining that ecclesiastic jurisdiction is determined not territorially but ethnically; the kernel of the problem was the seat of exarchate because canon law contained the principle of there being only one prelate in any city.
The exarchate could now represent the interests of the Bulgarian nation in the Ottoman corridors of power; more importantly, it could defend Bulgarian Orthodoxy against the patriarchate and against Uniatism in Macedonia, and sponsor Bulgarian churches and schools in the mixed dioceses and even in some which were still in the patriarchate.

 The Episcopate of Bishop Nicholas T. Elko
On September 5, 1955, Bishop Elko's rapid rise within the ranks of the Pittsburgh Greek Catholic Exarchate reached its inevitable conclusion when he was officially named as the exarchate's third bishop.

It marked the continuation of the practice started in late 1940's whereby the traditional appellation of "Greek Catholic" was replaced by the term "Byzantine Catholic" in an effort to clarify the religious and ritual identification of the Church for American Catholics.

However, the bishop of Ephesus, as well as the bishop of Caesarea, (who was in the same circumstances,) retained the name and some of the authority of an exarch in succeeding ages; and in general councils they have always sat and subscribed immediately after the patriarchs.
The whole exarchate of Ephesus has for a length of time received the Constantinopolitan liturgies of Basil and Chrysostom; but 1 think there is some reason to affirm that the order which is represented by these liturgies, has not always prevailed in that exarchate.
The nineteenth canon of this council has long been celebrated for the minute directions which it gives for the celebration of the liturgy; being in fact almost the only canon made during several centuries, that appears to regulate the order of divine service.
