Interior of the Church of Hagia Sophia

Justinian’s Code Corpus Juris Civilis (body of civil law): 1. Digest 2. Code 3. Institutes

CHRISTIANS With Differences  West (Roman Catholic)  Pope in Rome  Latin Language  Most important holy day Christmas  East (Eastern Orthodox)  Patriarch in Constantinople  Clergy could marry  Greek Language  Most important holy day Easter

Byzantine emperor attempted, but failed to suppress icon veneration Great Schism (Split) 1054 CE

What Happened to the Byzantines?

 in 1204, the Crusaders attacked, conquered, and pillaged the city of Constantinople, a goal that the Muslims had been trying achieve for centuries
