Timeline of the History of the main autocephalous Eastern Orthodox Churches, E. Orthodox point of view (2022)

By "main", I (User:Veverve) mean a) churches wich were recognised as autocephalous by at least one other church - other church which is recognised as autocephalous by the other churches; b) churches which became part of churches wich were recognised as autocephalous by at least one other church - other church which is recognised as autocephalous by the other churches; c) the en:Orthodox Church of Ukraine (its case is complicated, see en:2018 Moscow–Constantinople schism). The UOC-KP after its departure from the OCU was included, because its departure was really soon after its merge, and because it was never clear if it was really part of the Orthodox Church of Ukraine (see en:Conflict between Filaret and Epiphanius).
The timeline starts at the council of Chalcedon, as it appears the Church of Jerusalem was not autocephalous before this council, and the bishop of en:Ælia Capitolina (Jerusalem) was under the Metropolis of Caesarea; it is unclear under whom the Metropolis of Caesarea was under.
For the sake of brievity and clarity, the timeline has an E. Orthodox bias: all Churches are shown as being E. Orthodox since the Council of Chalcedon, with the Church of Rome starting being Roman Catholic in 1054.
The date of autocephaly of the Georgian Orthodox Church may vary wildly depending on the source you look at. I used the latest date which is given in The Encyclopedia of Eastern Orthodox Christianity (art. 'Georgia, Patriarchal Orthodox Church of'). John Wiley & Sons. 2011. See this section of the Wikipedia article. The Georgian Orthodox Church's juridictional origin is almost all the time considered as being the Church of Antioch, but once, at the fr:Exarchat de Géorgie, I found the Church of Constantinople as the mother Church of Georgia.

How independent were its archbishops?", Günter Prinzing; "The only émigré from the east whom the sources mention is the patriarch Damian who fled from Preslav when Tzimiskes conquered that city and abolished his office. Samuel shortly thereafter made Damian patriarch of a new patriarchate which Samuel established in Ohrid." - J. Fine, The Early Medieval Balkans: A Critical Survey from the Sixth to the Late Twelfth Century, p. 191-2 — "Romanos survived and according to Yahya ibn Sa‘td, the Christian Arabic historian who reports the most likely version of events, he was crowned emperor, presumably by the patriarch of Bulgaria (now re-established in the west)." - Mark Whittow, The Making of Byzantium (600–1025), p. 297. — en:John I Tzimiskes took Preslav in 971 according to en:Byzantine conquest of Bulgaria. I have put "970s" for the departure of the Patriarch from Preslav to Ohrid, as I had no precise date.
