"Worldwide, the Anglican church (2nd largest single Christian denomination on the globe) is overwelmingly very orthodox and bible based--due primarily to the former British colonies' mission churches."
Third largest.
Since the Eastern Orthodox comprise of national Churches--with slightly different polities in each, that is why I listed Anglicans as 2nd. Depending on how you define a denomination or communion, you are correct. There are more Eastern Orthodox Christians than Anglican.
Still, the "sun never sets" empire of the British, was used mightily by God to build a huge communion.
