Today, and along with the Latin Rite, the Catholic Church has several Eastern Catholic Churches, churches with their own rites submitted to the Pope.
Such churches were founded in Orthodox lands ruled by Catholic rulers or from schismatic and/or heretical Churches (relatively from Rome) distraught with unrest, such as the Church of the East.
So, after reading about Anglicanorum Coetibus and entire Anglican parrishes defecting to Rome, I wondered if such churches be created in the West?
I found tle following places, from least to most probable:
A Gothic Church, founded from formerly Arian Goths from Spain; after all, the Catholic Church founded the from the allegued Nestorian Church of the East - but was the then-ecclesiology accepting from such diversity of rituals?
A Bohemian Catholic Church after the Jan Hus case - an Union of Prague could have been negocied, with communion under both species and Czech language used during Mass
A Silesian Catholic Church, born from an Union of Breslau from the local Lutherans under the Austrian Empire - maybe after the founding of the local university by the Jesuits; after all, Lutherans have nearly the same theology about Real Presence and some admit Bishops, and there is people who are trying it today
(There were no reason to create an autonomous Celtic Church and Calvinists are way too separated from Catholicism to be allowed to create an autonompous Church inside Rome)
