A Chronology of Later Byzantine History Course Description This course covers the history of the Byzantine Empire from the end of Iconoclasm (843) to the fall of Constantinople to the Ottoman Turks (1453). The primary goal of the course is to promote an understanding of Byzantine civilization in its historical setting; thus, we will try to understand the "mind-set" of the Byzantines and how they reacted to the world around them. The Byzantines developed a unique civilization, one that was different from that of their classical Greek and Roman ancestors and different from that of their contemporaries in the medieval West. Historiographically, Byzantium has een generally misunderstood and often malaigned. This course will present the Byzantine achievement in a positive light and allow the student to draw his/her own conclusions about the value of the Byzantine tradition.

It influenced the development of much of Eastern Europe and became a repository of all of the Classical learning, keeping it safe until Medieval Europe was ready for the Renaissance. During the seventh century, the religion of Islam arose in the Middle East and within a hundred years, its followers had built an empire larger than the Roman Empire at its height. The Islamic civilization drew on the rich heritage of Greek, Roman, Byzantine, Persian and Indian cultures.

    http://www.byzantinecoins.com/history.html
    
    Extractions: Upon reuniting of the Roman empire by Constantine the Great, he looked for a place that could be truly a center for a new Roman Empire that was centered on the Christian faith. The reason that he chose the site of Byzantium was two fold. First, it was a logical link to the eastern parts of the empire and second it would provide a formidable defense to any aggression from the Persians in the east. The transformation of the Roman empire into that of the Byzantine empire was slow and did not have any real dividers in time. The "Byzantines" really considered themselves "Romans" and it was not until the divisions that occurred between the papacy and the eastern orthodox church was there any differentiation between the two. Remember that the Ostrogothic and Visigothic conquests within the western hemisphere of the empire made many changes in values, disciplines and beliefs. The word "Byzantine" was not used until well in the 15th century to describe the eastern part of the Roman empire. However, there were many conflicts between the eastern and western parts of the empire, mostly due to religious differences and monetary jealousy. The beginning of the "Byzantine Empire" was of course with the establishment of Constantinople in 330. Constantine the Great wanted this city to be built from scratch as the center of the Christian world. He and his following emperors made Constantinople into one of the most elaborate and civilized cities in the world. The wealth that was displayed was incredible. Until the Fourth Crusade, Constantinople enjoyed 874 years of growth and stability. Few cities in history have lasted as long without being overrun by an invading army.

    http://stronghold.heavengames.com/sc/history
    
    Extractions: Zeus by Sulis On November 17th 1095, Pope Urban II gave an important speech at the end of a church council in Clermont, France, calling for the nobility of Western Europe to assist their Eastern brothers in a Crusade to liberate the Holy Lands from the Muslim Turks, who were rapidly encroaching on the Byzantine Empire. The Turks had already overrun most of the Byzantine Empire and were within striking distance of the capital, Constantinople. He also called for the liberation of Jerusalem, the most sacred of places in Christendom. The response was overwhelming, something Pope Urban could not have envisaged. Some 130,000 men and women joined the armies that left for the East over the following six years. But what were the Crusades? What had occurred to prompt this call to arms? In order to understand why and how the Crusades took place, we need to look at the history surrounding Europe and the Middle East leading up to this time.

    Extractions: The Forgotten Empire When Rome fell, Byzantium lasted another thousand years by Melissa Snell In the fifth century AD, the mighty Roman Empire "fell" to invading barbarians and complex internal pressures. The land that had been centrally governed for centuries disintegrated into numerous warring states. The safety and privileges enjoyed by some residents of the empire vanished to be replaced by a constant state of danger and uncertainty; others merely traded one set of daily terrors for another. Europe was plunged into what Renaissance scholars would label a "dark age." Yet Byzantium remained.

93. The History Of The Ecumenical Patriarchate Of Constantinople
    http://www.patriarchate.org/book/Third_Period
    
    Extractions: Third Period: The Last Byzantine Centuries In the third period of patriarchal history, from 1261 to 1453, but increasingly after the late fourteenth century, the last but greatest enemy of the Byzantines, the Ottoman Turks of Asia, advanced closer and closer to Constantinople. In this period, the once mighty Byzantine Empire had so shrunk in territory that by 1300, almost all that remained, besides Constantinople itself, was part of what we call today Greece, Macedonia, Thrace, and a strip of western Asia Minor. (Asia Minor of course had earlier been entirely Greek and the very backbone of the Byzantine Empire.) The danger from the advancing Turks soon became so pressing that in order to secure military aid, the Emperors were forced to turn to the greatest source of power in the West, the Papacy. But the popes of Rome would offer no aid unless the Greeks accepted the popes as the head of their church, in other words, unless they converted to Roman Catholicism with its beliefs and practices.
