The "Byzantine" Empire, or the Eastern Roman Empire, was founded when the capital of the Roman Empire was transferred from Rome to Constantinople in 324. It lasted until the Ottoman Turkish invasion in 1453, but its Orthodox Christian faith and cultural legacy remain strongly visible.

I love your videos. In the future (if possible) could you make a video regarding how the FALL of constantinople sparked the influx of nobles, scholars, and artisans to the West (preferably Italy) and began the reintroduction of Greco-roman doctrine anew. One could argue, if Constantinople would have never fallen to the Ottomans, we would still be in the Dark ages. Just a thought. Anyhow I know before the fall of constantinople there was already a commencement of classical learning in the West, however, it was in its infancy. The fall of Constantinople made them (the west) get their act together toward the enlightenment and embraced the Byzantine scholar's reasoning and boosted their knowledge to another level.
Salutations.
