The Byzantines sent missionaries to convert the Slaves to Orthodox Christianity (the religion of their empire).
Saints Cyril and Methodius were two brothers who carried out missionary work in Great Moravia, the first West Slavic state whose core territories were along the present-day border of the Czech Republic and Slovakia. In 862 the ruler of this state, Prince Rastislav, asked the Byzantine emperor and the patriarch of the Greek Church send missionaries to Christianise his Slavic subjects. The emperor chose to send these brothers. They were very successful and this success was based on their translation of The Bible into the language which is now called Old Church Slavonic. They also devised the first Slavonic alphabet, the Glagolitic alphabet, which was suited to the features of Slavonic languages. The current Slavonic alphabet, Cyrillic, is derived from the Glagolitic alphabet. They also wrote the first Slavic civil law code.
After this important missionary work was carried out in Bulgaria and the Rus' of Kiev.

One strong emperor was not merely sign of state power but also, not officially, a head of the Eastern Orthodox Church.
