Roman Catholicism in South Africa : ウィキペディア英語版 | Roman Catholicism in South Africa
The Catholic Church in South Africa (Roman Rite) is part of the universal Catholic Church composed of the Roman Rite and 22 Eastern Rites, all under the spiritual leadership of the pope based in Vatican City. It is made up of 26 dioceses and archdioceses plus an apostolic vicariate. Approximately 3.3 million Catholics reside in South Africa making up 6% of the total South African population. 2.7 million are of various black African ethnic groups, such as Zulu, Xhosa, and Sotho. Coloured and white South Africans each account for roughly 300,000.〔(Catholics in RSA ) 1996 census statistics posted on the website of the Archdiocese of Bloemfontein.〕 Most white Catholics are English speaking, and the majority are descended from Irish immigrants. Many others are Portuguese settlers who left Angola and Mozambique after they became independent in the 1970s, or their children. The proportion of Catholics among the predominantly Calvinist white Afrikaans speakers, or South African Asians who are mainly Hindus of Indian descent, is extremely small. ==Structure and leadership==
