Syriac-Eastern

The Eastern Syriac script (called Madnhaya, "Eastern") is used by the Assyrian Church of the East, the Ancient Church of the East, and the Chaldean Catholic Church. It is used by Assyrian and Chaldean communities in Iraq, Iran, northeastern Syria, and southeastern Turkey, and by diaspora communities in the United States, Sweden, Germany, and Australia.
Eastern Syriac developed from the older Estrangelo script after the Syriac-speaking churches divided in the 5th century, when Christians in the Persian Empire separated from those in the Roman (Byzantine) Empire. It is written from right to left, and its vowels are shown by dots placed above and below the letters. Besides classical Syriac, it is used to write modern Neo-Aramaic languages such as Assyrian and Chaldean Neo-Aramaic.
