Do you know this Church?

I have seen a video where the people speaks about a Catholic Church: The Maronite

It is an Eastern Catholic Church in full communion with the Pope. In his Official web page:

"The Maronites, an Eastern rite Catholic Church, profess the same Apostolic Faith, celebrate the same Mysteries (Sacraments) and are united with the chief Shepherd of the Church, the Pope, as all Roman Catholics throughout the world. They have their own distinct theology, spirituality, liturgy and code of canon law."
