The Byzantine Empire

Birth of Byzantine Empire Augustus founded the Roman Empire in 27 BCE Weakening by 3 rd Century CE (200s) In 285 CE, Emperor Diocletian realized that the empire was too large and weak for one ruler Split it into 2 halves, one emperor each Emperor Constantine made city of Byzantine capital  Constantinople Byzantine Empire (a.k.a. Eastern Roman Empire, a.k.a. Byzantium) continued on until 1453 CE

Byzantine Empire’s Success Unlike WRE, had lots of cities (trade, government, population) Fertile farmland in Anatolia = large quantities of food = large population Emperors could collect tax money to pay for large army to protect borders City of Constantinople surrounded by water  hard to capture

Justinian (ruled ) Absolute monarch (Caesaropapism) Justinian’s Code Building Program in Constantinople Reconquest

Cultural Interaction Byzantine Culture = Greek Culture + Roman Culture + Asian Culture
