There are 22 Churches that make up the Catholic Church. Canonically, they are called "Sui Iuris", that is, "self governing". The Church of Rome is just one of these 22 Churches, although it is unique, because it is not only a Sister Church, but the Mother of all the other Churches.

Here's a page that lists all the different Churches, and the corresponding Liturgical rites:

Answer to question 1: No
Answer to question 2: Sometimes

EENS check out the [url="http://www.patriarchate.org/ecumenical_patriarchate/chapter_4/index.html"]The Byzantine Monuments[/url] section from the Oecumenical Patriarchate's website. Therein you'll find some of the finest examples of Byzantine church buildings.
