===Non-metropolitan archiepiscopal sees=== [[File:Miguel de Poblete y Casasola.jpg|thumb|[[Miguel de Poblete Casasola]], [[Archbishop of Manila]] (1649β1667)]] As well as the much more numerous metropolitan sees, there are 77 Catholic sees that have archiepiscopal rank.<ref name="AP2012" />{{rp|1142}} In some cases, such a see is the only one in a country, such as [[Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Luxembourg|Luxembourg]]<ref name="AP2012" />{{rp|423}} or [[Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Monaco|Monaco]],<ref name="AP2012" />{{rp|474}} too small to be divided into several dioceses so as to form an ecclesiastical province. In others, the title of archdiocese is for historical reasons attributed to a see that was once of greater importance. Some of these archdioceses are [[suffragan diocese|suffragans]] of a metropolitan archdiocese; examples are the [[Archdiocese of Avignon]], which is a suffragan of the [[Archdiocese of Marseille]],<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.catholic-hierarchy.org/diocese/davig.html|title=Avignon (Latin (or Roman) Archdiocese) [Catholic-Hierarchy]|website=www.catholic-hierarchy.org|access-date=2019-06-14}}</ref> and the [[Archdiocese of Trnava]], [[Slovakia]]. Others are immediately subject to the Holy See and not to any metropolitan archdiocese. These are usually "aggregated" to an ecclesiastical province. An example is the [[Archdiocese of Hobart]] in [[Australia]], {{em| associated}} with the Metropolitan [[Archdiocese of Melbourne|ecclesiastical province of Melbourne]], but not {{em|part}} of it.<ref name="AP2012" />{{rp|296}} The ordinary of such an archdiocese is an archbishop. In the [[Anglican Communion]], non-metropolitan archiepiscopal sees are much less common. The [[Anglican Diocese of Jerusalem]], established in 1841, was raised to the status of a non-metropolitan archiepiscopal see in 1957, but reduced to the status of an ordinary bishopric again in 1976. In 2014 it was again elevated to the status of non-metropolitan archbishopric, with its ordinary bearing the title "Archbishop in Jerusalem", despite having no ex officio right to be the metropolitan of the province.<ref name=jmeca>{{cite web |url = https://www.jmeca.org.uk/christianity-middle-east/anglican-episcopal-church/jerusalem/brief-history-diocese-jerusalem |title = A Brief History of the Diocese of Jerusalem |publisher = The Jerusalem and the Middle East Church Association |access-date = 26 June 2020 }}</ref><ref name=acjer>{{cite web |url = http://www.anglicancommunion.org/structures/member-churches/member-church/diocese.aspx?church=middle-east&dio=jerusalem |title = Archbishop in Jerusalem |date= 17 June 2020|publisher = Anglican Communion |access-date = 26 June 2020 }}</ref>
