Abstract
The period of Tikhon’s patriarchate (1917–1925) coincided with the establishment of the new secular Turkish state, which also threatened the patriarchate of Constantinople. External challenges effected ecclesiastical relations, as the patriarchs of Constantinople held an ambiguous position toward Tikhon vis-à-vis the Renovationists. As the Russian Empire fragmented, new nations were born such as Ukraine and Georgia (briefly), Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania, and Finland, and millions of Orthodox Christians ended up in the Polish state. New governments wanted to be as independent of Moscow as possible, including their churches, and sought autocephaly, which was also favored by some clergy and laity. Communication between Patriarch Tikhon and these new states was extremely difficult. Tikhon generally supported broad autonomy for these Churches, the use of local languages and even the new calendar, but declared that autocephaly was premature and was not his to grant, but the prerogative of a Church Council.

External challenges effected ecclesiastical relations, as the patriarchs of Constantinople held an ambiguous position toward Tikhon vis-à-vis the Renovationists.
As the Russian Empire fragmented, new nations were born such as Ukraine and Georgia (briefly), Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania, and Finland, and millions of Orthodox Christians ended up in the Polish state.

Communication between Patriarch Tikhon and these new states was extremely difficult.
