Most history books will tell you that the Roman Empire fell in the fifth century CE, but this would’ve come as a surprise to the millions who lived in the Roman Empire through the Middle Ages. This Medieval Roman Empire, today called the Byzantine Empire, began when Constantine, the first Christian emperor, moved Rome's capital. Leonora Neville details the rise and fall of the Byzantine Empire.

I wished the byzantine empire would not have fallen. They would have checked muslim expansion and kept christian traditions and values in modern day turkey and protected antioch which was the major christian site.
2:00 esse fundo ficou parecendo a bandeira do Brasil kkkk
4:08 Early 21st century, you say? Was that a mistake? Because that’s now. And if they didn’t stop until now, then why did they stop at all? What was the big change that suddenly ended it, and how do you know there aren’t lots of people still doing it this very day?
Istanbul is a wonderful name for the city.
Can you do falling of Macedonian empire
This is a super interesting empire
As a catholic i am very sorry for Constantinople...
I miss this empire a lot, but still they shouldn't mess with me...
The French. Destroyer of arts
Someone summarize this for me... I’ll love u forever
Really nice video, but you didn't mentioun the countless battles between Byzantine and Bulgaria 😉😂
Is Tin Poli (Istanbul), Constantinople by Nicholas Siderakis
Place your ear perpendicularly on Constantinople's wall
Hear the echoes?
If not listen intensely
Is tin poli (Istanbul)
Echoes originating from the heart of the city
Be wary
For barbarians hover at her gates
Her triple skin unable to bear the siege
Her walls breached
Agia Sophia reached
Holy Wisdom's flame forever extinguished
Tears trickling down from candles
White marble stained red
Parishioners massacred
Constantine heroically falls on the ramparts
His soul escapes from the walls of the city
But his body petrified within them
One day to return and recapture Constantinople
For the greater glory of Byzantium
im no longer in any history (seniors have econ & govt) and i know all of this already, but im a history geek and the visuals are great SO WHY NOT

“Create extra villagers”
“Cease creating extra villagers “
By this day, no one in iran call eastern roman empire as Byzantine. We either call it rûm or rûm e sharghi (eastern rome).
+Jizldiedizl B in any case, truth is known to their rivals.
that's because many nationalist greeks and hellenophile people claim, that the "byzantine" empire (which never existed) was their accomplishment while everybody knows that it was just the eastern half of the roman empire. The Roman empire was made by italic people from the italian peninsula. They invaded greece and united it under an empire while greeks themselves were busy killing each other (as always).
Really enjoyable, thanks! One point - after the recapture of the city by the Byzantines in 1261, there was a Palaiologan Renaissance. Byzantium continued on for almost another two hundred years until the Ottomans brought an end to it in 1453. The Fourth Crusade (1202-1204) was damaging, yes, but was not the same as the death blow dealt by the Ottomans. It’s all too easy to promote criticism of past Christian powers and to avoid criticism of past Islamic powers in these days of political correctness.
King of Kings, Ruler of Rulers!
Its hardly Roman if Rome ain't even in it !
+VC YT Well Constantinople was the official 2nd rome so ..
+Alban JashAri , not possible as Rome can only be Rome. Roman is derived from it. An the roads were soon closed by huns etc.
Feeling sorry for Alexios Angelos
Byzantium never fell it was just relocated to Russia
Ave Roma
is is that what the Legend of Zelda breath of the wild towers are based off of?
Muahauahha cryyyyyyyyy byzantuim
Assassin's Creed Revelations
Great animation but you forgot to mention that Arabs and then Seljuks were first to weaken Byzantine empire.
Well thank you religion.
Western Roman Empire was destroyed by barbarians came from the east; Eastern Roman Empire was destroyed by barbarians came from the west.
O, how terrible these barbarians were. They would sack everywhere.
Wtf I Love ISLAM now!
I agree with dennis andrew. The space was open, so the turks took control over it. Simple. Nothing to argue about
Check your facts. Many are wrong
I feel like moving the capital to Constantinople is not a great Idea.
Makes sense why the Renaissance happened... As people left the Eastern Roman Empire, now run by the moslems, and went to Europe, there became a European Age of Enlightenment!
I would have included at least some mention of Irene of Athens and the concept of “translatio imperii.”
Idk fully but ı thought great seljuk state took over the Byzantine with 3 great wars malazgirt war
miryokefalon war and the kösedağ war. Can somebody please answer me :(
The story of tesla please
Hayyyah! Sophia! Wtf man...it's Aghia (ayia). Also get your pronunciation of names right. This is the real Greek Culture right here.
This one video has much as funny animations than other ted ed videos
So which was it? They were blacks or whites? Why is there evidence for both?
Constantinople wasn’t renamed until the fall of the Ottoman Empire
you did'int mention Justinian the Great and only the fall of the empire
Europe has died, Europe has risen, Europe will come agian
Constantinople is Minas Tirith in real life, down to the defensive walls and beacons. Except in real life, when Gondor called for aid, Rohan stayed home.
1453 b*tches!
Sultan Muhammad Al-Fateh
ottoman sultan mehmed2 was very young when he captured constantinople. he looks like a man in 60s here.
AD not CE
are you cambodia?

RIP Roman Empire
Actually it was Alexius 4 angelos who brought the crusaders ( who were actually going to Egypt ) to the empire to take the throne from his uncle Alexius 3 Angelos who had already decimated the empire financially though Alexius 3 tried to resist his nephew by rallying the byzantine soldiers who greatly outnumbered the crusaders but didn't fought. Thus the crusaders weakened the empire for the Turks and Balkans to later capture it.
I couldn't care less what the city is called
Não foram os ostrogodos que saquearam Roma?
Remove Kebab.

God haters and Pisslam are destroying what's left of Europe.
Russia is the modern day successor of the Byzantine Empire.
True Rome
*Mehmed The II. Joined The Game*
I came after Rise of Civilization game :)
Hahaah these greek comments. Its Istanbul not constantinople.
Triggerd Greeks incoming about Istanbul.
When Russia was created, it took Byzantine as a model for religion... but there are some renaissance defenders who prefer to call Byzantine the Ottoman realm than to admit that a safe Western community was living between 5 c and 12 c ...
1:16 that's not the imperial palace, that's the Hagia Sophia.
The terms "Byzantine" and "Greek" were invented by the Franks to steal the term Roman and detach Orthodox Christianity from it, in order to establish their so called "Holy Roman Empire" and have the Pope accepted as the leader of all Christians. Byzantium was a city and never gave its name to the Roman Empire, while the word Greek was used by the Francs as a demeaning term for the Romans, meaning crook and heretic.
christians destroyed Rome twice
Im not really a big fan of muslims and catholics. they're always on the wrong side of history. also, muhammad copied catholicism to form islam.
Idk why but the cartoon style reminded me of The Powerpuff Girls so much
1453 worst year of life
“A system of beacons” THE BEACONS ARE LIT ! GONDOR CALLS FOR AID!
This video should be called Byzantines or Romans?? There is not a lot about the rise and fall of the empire.
No mention of my man Justinian .. tragic
Bizatine? Lol
Fun fact: Catherine the second(queen of Russia in 18th century) was planning to recreate Byzantium empire and together with France conquest ottoman empire but her death and revolution in France destroyed that idea
"call themselves roman till the 21st century" wuuut fr?
The Roman empire fell, not the Roman spirit.
Hello,you do not want to do about the Troian war or the mermaids?pls
Byzantion??????????????
‘’Istanbul(Constantinople)will be Conquered.The general who does it,is the best general,the troop that does it is the best troop’’
Hadis-i Serif
Does a video about the Rise and Fall of The Byzantine Empire and doesn't mention Justinian...
Fatih was 20 years old when conquer the Constantinapole and barely not have a belly. Maybe beard too.
Awesome video, I'm from the city of Constantine, Istanbul.
Eastern Romans and later on Byzantine empire was very influenced from Greeks adopting greek customs and later on make.the.Greek the first language into the empire
It’s not Istanbul or Constantinople it’s Miklagård!
Harry Larsson wtf?
There is no Byzantine Empire but Eastern Roman Empire. These people called themselves Roman not Greek. My ancestors are Roman not Greek !!! Greek are not Anatolian ! Get your facts right. Term of Byzantine created by germans to take Roman title to Holy Roman Empire !
Alperen Başer Your ancestors? Alperen?

It brings tears to my eyes all the spelling errors made in this video...
Its not Hagia Sophia. Its Ayiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiia Sophiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiia or Ayiaaaa sophiaaaa
that's the correct way of intonating / spelling the Greeks words "Αγιά Σοφία / Αγιά Σοφιά"
who cares right?
:(
Best aoe civ never dies
Eu4.
Constantinos the great was not Christian
+Killer Dude he was not he never was. And actually the myth has it that he became a Christian on his deathbed but it is just it a myth
Yes he was
Interesting how hagia Sophia is pronounced in different areas, in Arabic we call it Aya sofia
