A complement phrase fronted
I think in the following sentence, a complement phrase is fronted and a subject clause and a verb are inverted.
Relatively small in terms of adherents compared to the Latin Church, but important to the overall structure of the Church, are the 22 self-governing Eastern Churches with a combined membership of 17.3 million as of 2010.
I'd like know whether or not my thought is right.
In advance, thank you for your help.
