		It was the uncompromising attitude of the orthodox extremists, and the rebellious demonstrations of the Byzantine populace, that drove him in 512 to abandon this policy and adopt a monophysitic programme.

		The financial policy of Anastasius was so prudent and economical that it gained him a reputation for avarice and contributed to his unpopularity.

	Byzantine Empire - Crystalinks
		The Byzantine Empire is the term conventionally used to describe the Greek-speaking Roman Empire during the Middle Ages, centred at its capital in Constantinople.
		The Eastern Empire was largely spared the difficulties of the west in the 3rd and 4th centuries (see Crisis of the Third Century), in part because urban culture was better established there and the initial invasions were attracted to the wealth of Rome.
		By far the most significant building of the Byzantine Empire is the great church of Hagia Sophia (Church of the Holy Wisdom) in Constantinople (532-37), which retained a longitudinal axis but was dominated by its enormous central dome.

		Whatever martial propaganda they still broadcast to their peoples, the two empires gradually came to accept the advantages of avoiding costly and unrewarding wars, and sought if possible to resolve conflicts by other means.

	Patriarch Euphemius of Constantinople information - Search.com
		Before the accession of the Emperor Anastasius I, Euphemius had made him sign a profession of faith (Evagrius, H.E., III, xxxii); eventually he fell foul of the emperor.
		A war against the Isaurians was then under way, and Euphemius was accused of treason by revealing the emperor's plans to his enemies.
		The emperor further wanted back his written profession of faith, which Euphemius refused to give up, so Anastasius assembled the bishops who were in the capital and preferred charges against their patriarch, whom they obsequiously excommunicated and deposed (496).
