Edinoverie (Russian: Единоверие; occasionally also transcribed as Yedinoverie or Yedinoveriye) is an arrangement between certain Russian Old Believer communities and the official Russian Orthodox State Church, whereby the communities are treated as a part of the normative Orthodox Church system, while maintaining their own traditional rites. Thus, they are often described as Old-Ritualists (Russian: Старообрядцы, Staroöbriadtsy), rather than Old Believers.
