recognize the same compendium of saints in their history, or do they each have their own "hall of glory"?

I think we have saints that are also considered saints by the Orthodox Church. After the split with the Church, I think it is fair to assume that they have their own saints who may not be saints in the Catholic Church.
Peace and every blessing!

The Orthodox give greater honor to certain saints than the Catholic Church does, but the Catholic Church does recognize all of those saints. The curious thing is that most of the saints honored by the Orthodox Churches were clearly Catholics, since there was no Orthodox Church until the 11th Century, and many of the canonized saints lived before then.

They honor the same saints of the early christian church. Polycarp, Irenaeus, Justin Martyr (I'd recommend reading them rather then reading site such as Jesus-is-savior which doesn't even teach correct teachings of Catholicism), and so on and also the honor all the know christian martyrs pre-split. There are also some saints which the orthodox honor who were roman catholic post-split i.e. Francis of Assisi.

Whenever I answer a question about Catholic's I get turned in for abuse.
