No particular event can possibly mark 1,000 years of history. The history of this Empire actually lasted about 1,170 years. This figure refers to the fact that this empire lasted for another 1000 years after the fall of the Western Roman Empire. Historians use the term Byzantine Empire for the Eastern Roman Empire after the fall of the Western Roman Empire. The term is derived from Byzantion, the name of Greek city that was renamed Constantinople. It is used to indicate the fact that after it lost most of its non-Greek territories, this empire became centred on Greece and Greek in character. In 620 (ca. 140 year after the fall of the west) Greek replaced Latin as the official language of this empire.
