Explanation
The question is asking about the dominant figure or leader of the Eastern Orthodox Church, an independent Christian church that exists in many dialects throughout Eastern Europe. The provided options are Pope (which is primarily related to the Roman Catholic Church), Czar of Russia (historically a political leader in Russia), Emperor of the Byzantine Empire (again, a political position rather than spiritual), and Patriarch, a term which pertains to a leader in many Christian churches internationally, and specifically in the case of the Eastern Orthodox Church.
