There is only one “Roman” Catholic Church. However there are a fair number of Catholic “denominations,” of which the Roman Catholic Church is only one and is the world’s largest. Actually there is really no such thing as “Roman” Catholic, but rather they are Latin Rite Catholic Churches who are fully in communion with the Bishop of Rome (The Holy Father, The Pope).
