	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.
		Theodosius II enchanced the walls of Constantinople, leaving the city impenetrable to attacks: it was to be preserved from foreign conquest until 1204.

	Byzantine Empire. The Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition. 2001-05
		The core of the empire consisted of the Balkan Peninsula (i.e., Thrace, Macedonia, Epirus, Greece proper, the Greek isles, and Illyria) and of Asia Minor (present-day Turkey).
		The reigns (395–527) of Arcadius, Theodosius II, Marcian, Leo I, Leo II, Zeno, Anastasius I, and Justin I were marked by the invasions of the Visigoths under Alaric I, of the Huns of Attila, and of the Avars, the Slavs, the Bulgars (see Bulgaria), and the Persians.
		The reconstructed empire was soon attacked from all sides, notably by Charles I of Naples, by Venice, by the Ottoman Turks, by the new kingdoms of Serbia and Bulgaria, and by Catalonian adventurers under Roger de Flor.

	Anastasius II (emperor) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Anastasius II (died 721), Byzantine emperor, whose original name was Artemius, was raised to the throne of Constantinople by the voice of the senate and people in 713, on the deposition of Philippicus, whom he had served in the capacity of secretary.
		After a six months' siege, Constantinople was taken by Theodosius; Anastasius, who had fled to Nicaea, was compelled to submit to the new emperor in 716 and retired to a monastery in Thessalonica.
		In 721, Anastasius headed a revolt against Leo, who had succeeded Theodosius, and receiving a considerable amount of support, laid siege to Constantinople.

		Byzantine authority was severely weakened, and the growing power vacuum at the centre of the empire encouraged fragmentation, as the provinces began to look to local strongmen rather than the government in Constantinople for protection.
		According to a prearranged treaty, the Byzantine empire was dissolved and its territories divided between Venice and the Latin Empire of Constantinople.
		Perhaps the Byzantine empire's greatest contribution to literature was their careful preservation of Ancient Greek literature, which was thereby transmitted both to Europe and to the Islamic world, as well as compilations of works on certain subjects, with certain revisions, most notably in the fields of medicine and history.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: The Byzantine Empire
		Byzantine Empire is strikingly exhibited in the depreciation of currency during the reigns of the Comneni.
		Anastasius, Justin, the so-called circus factions kept bears for spectacles in the circus, and the Empress Theodora was the daughter of a bear-baiter.
		Byzantine State was menaced, as of old, on three sides: on the East by the Seljuk Turks, who had supplanted the Arabs; on the West by the Normans, who had sodded the Arabs in that quarter; on the North by the Slavs, Bulgarians, and Finnic-Ugrian (Magyars, Petchenegs, and Cumani).

	Byzantine Empire 610-1095 by Sanderson Beck
		Both the Persian and Byzantine empires had been weakened by their war; having suffered persecution from Byzantine orthodoxy, the Monophysites and the Persian Magians were usually willing to pay tribute for their religious freedom under the Muslims or convert, the third choice being to fight.
		Bulgaria was annexed by the Byzantine empire; Boris II was taken to Constantinople as a prisoner; and the Bulgarian Patriarchate was terminated.
		The Byzantine empire had reached its greatest extent, and while reducing taxes on the poor and waging continuous wars enough plunder had been gained from the conquered and the estates of rebel aristocrats to leave a treasury that included 15,000,000 gold coins.

		Its administration was seriously influenced by the polities of the empire the boundaries of the empire bounded the Church's aspirations and activities.
		Byzantine civilization produced a succession of typical women of middle class who are a proof, first, of the high esteem in which women were held in social life and, secondly, of the sacredness of family life, which even now distinguishes the Greek people.
		We must not forget, however, that under the successor of Anastasius, Justin, the so-called circus factions kept bears for spectacles in the circus, and the Empress Theodora was the daughter of a bear-baiter.

		Hagia Sophia, in Istanbul, is the signature monument of the Byzantine Empire.
		At the time of the fall of the Roman empire in the west (476), the Roman Empire in the east controlled the Balkans to Illyria and the Danube river; Anatolia to Georgia; the Levant (Syria and Palestine), Egypt, and Libya; southern Italy; Crete and Cyprus; and a beachhead in the Crimea.
		At the height of its Italian expansion, the empire held most of Italy against the Lombards, but by 600 the imperial hold on Italy had been reduced to Rome, Spoleto, and Ravenna, separated by the Lombard duchy of Benevento from southern Italy and Sicily.

	Byzantine Empire - All About Turkey
		The Byzantine Empire is also known as the Eastern Roman Empire, for it was in fact a continuation of the Roman Empire into its eastern part.
		For 1100 years, the Byzantine's were able to maintain control of their empire, although somewhat tenuously at times; the Empire's expansion and prosperity were balanced by internal religious schisms (such as Nika Riot) and recurring wars with enemies from the outside.
		The Byzantine Empire, however, had left its mark on the culture, never to be entirely erased even after the Conquest.

		The Western division of the Empire, encompassing Rome itself together with Italy, Gaul, Britain, Iberia, and northwestern Africa, was utterly unable to maintain itself in the face of overwhelming barbarian invasion/migration.

		The really farsighted achievement of the Eastern empire during this period was not so much the weakening of the power of the army, as the institutionalising of it within a central ruling establishment at Constantinople, which included the palace and civil bureaucracy.
		For many years the deficiencies of the pious and bookish emperor Theodosius II (408-450) were heavily compensated by his dominating sister Pulcheria, who did everything possible to keep power within the palace and the imperial family rather than the civil ministers and generals.
		By 450, the Western empire was already a patchwork of barbarian settlements whereas the East retained its integrity.

	Byzantine Empire
		Later historians called it the Byzantine Empire, though that was not it's name at the time.
		For convenience, the Byzantine Empire can be considered to start in the reign of Anastasius I (491 -518 AD), because that was when the coinage was changed from a Roman type to a completely new style.
		The conquests of the Muslims, and later the Turks and Mongols, encroached on Byzantine territory.

		The legendary wealth of Constantinople, with its sublime craftsmanship and awesome golden mosaics, (the "Sages standing in God's Holy fire," of Yeats' much quoted poem,) was coupled with a spirituality that dictated penance and abstinence even for a soldier who had killed in battle.

	Leo to Irene - History for Kids!
		When Justinian's assassin Philippicus turned out to be a worthless party animal, he was killed, and in 713 AD the people of Constantinople chose a court official named Anastasius II to be the next emperor.
		Anastasius (ann-ah-STAYS-yus) was a practical guy, with good ideas - but in 715 the army rebelled and deposed him anyhow.
		He also made efforts to shut down or reduce the monasteries, both because they were hiding icons, and because a plague in 745-7 killed a lot of people and so more children were desperately needed.
