Some weakening frontiers of Rome included the Rhine and Danube rivers, which faced increasing pressure from Germanic tribes and other groups. Additionally, the eastern frontier became vulnerable due to the rise of the Sassanian Empire, which engaged in frequent conflicts with Rome. Economic decline and internal strife further strained military resources, making it difficult to maintain and defend these borders effectively. This combination of external threats and internal instability contributed to the gradual decline of Roman control over its frontiers.

How did moving the capital from Rome to Constantinople weaken the eastern part of the empire?

Moving the capital from Rome to Constantinople strengthened the eastern part of the empire. Emperor Constantine the Great moved the capital of the Byzantine/Roman Empire from Rome to Constantinople around 330 AD. He felt that Rome was an unsatisfactory capital. Rome was too far from the frontiers. Rome could no longer serve as the center of defense for the Byzantine Empire's widely spread frontiers. Constantinople provided easy trade and military access to the Mediterranean, Black Sea, Danube River, Dnieper River, and the land route to Turkestan and India.

When the emperor moved to constantinople how did that affect the importance of rome?

Constantine's decision to designate Constantinople as the imperial capital did not have a great effect of Rome's position in the empire. Her position had been declining for some time. This was because the Romans had found it difficult to defend their frontiers along the rivers Rhine and Danube from numerous attempted invasions by outsiders. Since Rome was distant from these frontiers, she became marginalised. The frontiers areas became the important part of the empire and as a result of continuous military efforts to defend them, many emperors were humble men who had rose through the military ranks and were from Pannonia, an area along the mid-Danube. The importance of some cities along the Danube increased . Milan (in northern Italy) became very important because, being close to the Alps, it became the military base for sending troops to the frontiers along the Alps and the river Rhine and for the defence of northern Italy. Rome had already ceased to be the imperial capital under Diocletian, Constantine's predecessor. Diocletian had designated Nicomedia (in north-western Turkey) as the imperial capital for the eastern part of the Roman Empire and Milan as the imperial capital of the western part of the empire.
