'the standard Bishop would be assumed Anglican in most of the
English-speaking world'

I should have commented on this earlier, but in the United States there
are 2.5 million Episcopalians (Anglicans) but almost 60 million Catholics.
 I know better, but most chess-players would be more familiar with
Catholic bishops that Anglican ones.  Most other Protestant denominations
do not have a rank of Bishop at all.
