The major sees in Africa are Metropoles, under Metropolitans, not Archdioceses, under Archbishops. There is some confusion about this on the English-language version of the Patriarchate's web page.
==Organization==
The Orthodox churches of sub-Saharan Africa are organized under the Patriarchate of Alexandria and include the following [[archdiocese]]s metropoles and dioceses:
* Archdiocese Metropolis of Cameroon* Archdiocese Metropolis of Cape of Good Hope* Archdiocese Metropolis of Central Africa* Archdiocese Metropolis of Ghana* Archdiocese Metropolis of Irinoupolis (Dar es Salaam)* Archdiocese Metropolis of Johannesburg and Pretoria* Archdiocese Metropolis of Kampala and All Uganda * Archdiocese Metropolis of Kenya* Archdiocese Metropolis of Nigeria* Archdiocese Metropolis of Zimbabwe
