What did historians call the western roman empire?

They called in the Western Roman empire. The only change of any of the roman empires was in the eastern roman empire. The eastern roman empire changed into the Byzantine Empire


When was Byzantine Empire created?

You may not find total agreement on this answer, but I would have it begin in the year 476 with the fall of the Western Roman Empire. The Byzantines did not call themselves Byzantines any more than the ancient Greeks called themselves Greeks. The Byzantine Empire is modern nomenclature to avoid confusion with the Eastern Roman Empire after the Roman Empire was divided, but before the Western Roman Empire fell.


What did Charlemagne rule?

Charlemagne was initially King of the West Franks. Then, when his brother Carloman, King of the East Franks, died, Charlemagne became King of the Franks. In 800 AD, Charlemagne was crowned Emperor of the Roman People by Pope Leo III. Today, historians call Charlemagne's empire the Carolingian Empire in order to distinguish it from all the other empires that called themselves the Empire of the Roman People, including the ancient Roman Empire, the Byzantine Empire, and the Holy Roman Empire.

What was Charlemagne empire called?

Charlemagne's empire was called the Empire of the Roman People. This was rather inconvenient, because the East Roman Empire was still operating and WA also called the Empire of the Roman People. So today, historians call Charlemagne's empire the Carolingian Empire and the East Roman Empire of the Middle Ages is called the Byzantine Empire.


What do historians call the eastern roman empire?

Not sure what you mean by "new." Historically, it would be Byzantium. The Byzantine or Eastern Roman Empire began with the Roman Emperor Constantine I in the 4th Century CE; as Western Europe was collapsing into the Dark Ages, he moved the (his new) Roman capitol to the location of Byzantium in Turkey; to become the great city of Constantinople (known today as Istanbul). It continued on as the premier power center of civilization & culture of the Eastern Mediterranean for about a 1000 years, until it was conquered by the Ottomans...


What is the role of byzantines?

The Byzantines were people of the Byzantine Empire, which was called the Roman Empire during the Middle Ages. The reason it is called Byzantine is to distinguish it from the ancient Roman Empire, the Carolingian Empire, and the Holy Roman Empire, all of which were called the Roman Empire by at least someone. The Byzantines provided a center of learning, government, and trade through the Middle Ages, until they were conquered by the Ottoman Turks, an event many call the end of the Middle Ages. There is a link below to an article on the Byzantine Empire.

What was Russia's connection with the eastern Roman Empire?

One connection between the Eastern Roman Empire (which historians also call Byzantine Empire) and Russia was the conversion of Russia to Orthodox Christianity (the religion of the Byzantine Empire) by Byzantine missionaries. This religion became Russia's religion in 989. The other connection was royal marriage. Soon after the fall of the Byzantine Empire and the capture of its capital, Constantinople, by the Ottoman Turks, Ivan III of Russia, who had married Sophia Paleologue, a niece of Constantine XI, the last Byzantine emperor, claimed that he was the heir of the fallen Empire. The Russians also saw themselves as the upholders of the religion of the Byzantine Empire, which had been taken over by the Muslim Turks. In 1501 a Russian monk, Filofey, wrote an ode to Ivan's successor, Vasili III, in which he said that: "Two Romes have fallen [Rome and Constantinople]. The third stands. And there will be no fourth. No one shall replace your Christian Tsardom!" The Russians called Russia the "Third Rome."


What did the eastern part of Rome become after it's fall?

The eastern part of the Roman Empire continued to be the Roman Empire. Historians have coined the term Byzantine Empire to indicate the eastern part of the Roman Empire after the fall of the western part of this empire. However, the people in question did not even know this term and continued to call it Roman Empire.
