Raskol (Russian: раско́л, Russian pronunciation: [rɐˈskol], meaning 'split' or 'schism') was the event of splitting of the Russian Orthodox Church into an official church and the Old Believers movement in mid-17th century, triggered by the reforms of Patriarch Nikon in 1653, aiming to establish uniformity between the Greek and Russian church practices.
