Similarities of Constantinople and Rome?
Both Rome and Constantinople had written laws. Emperor Justinian of Constantinople wrote the Corpus Julius Civilius which was based off the Roman written codes. Also Rome and Constantinople both practiced Christianity. Although Rome followed the Roman Catholicism and Constantinople followed the Eastern Orthodox Church, these are still from the same roots of the belief of Christianity. Also the idea of domes were used by both Rome and Constantinople. Rome had built the "Pantheon" and Constantinople built the Hagia Sophia. Emperor Justinian of Constantinople built the domes even bigger by using the quadrangle underneath the domes. Also both Rome and Constantinople were involved in trade and cultural diffusion with other countries.
Why is the Venice home to a vast amount of Byzantine art?
Venice was a dependency of the Byzantine Empire when it gained control of Italy. This continued after the Byzantines lost northern Italy because of the Lombard invasion and survived the takeover of Italy by the Franks. This kept Venice separate from the Holy Roman Empire and kept her linked to Constantinople, even though she gradually gained effective independence. The first crusade, which was fought to help the Byzantines, and where Venice and the other Italian sea republics supplied the navy, increased commercial ties with the Byzantine Empire. Venice was the prime trading link between Constantinople and Western Europe.
Was the byzantine emperor wise in asking Venice for help against the vikings?
No, even if Venice saved the Byzantines from the Vikings,Venetian ships and merchants soon controlled most of the empire's trade. That meant a great loss of income for the Byzantines.
How was Constantinople's government connected to religion?

How did Eastern Europe and Russia come into contact with the Byzantine Empire?
Part of the Byzantine Empire was in the southern part of Eastern Europe, in the Balkan Peninsula (the states of the former Yugoslavia, Romania, Bulgaria, Albania and Greece. The Byzantines lost most of this area due to Slav invasions, primarily the Bulgars and the Croats. Russia did not exist back then. The most important state in that area was the Kievan Rus, centred on the city of Kiev in Ukraine. The Kievan Rus and the Byzantines developed a trading relationship. Goods were transported across the Black Sea. The increasingly powerful Rus attacked the empire and even Constantinople several times. Their relationship improved with a marriage between the daughter of an emperor and Vladimir the great. The Byzantines also promoted conversion to Orthodox Christianity. However, attacks on the empire still occurred at times, as the Rus tried to compete with the Byzantines as a power.
