No. It was the only empire to adopt the Orthodox version of Christianity, but the Roman Empire did practice Roman Catholicism at a time.

What effect did the Byzantine Empire have on Eastern Europe?
I'm not a historian so I might be wrong, but I believe it had almost no effect on modern day east-Europe. After the Muslims invaded the empire, most of the byzantine culture had been destroyed and by the time constantinopel (the last byzantine city standing) fell, the Muslims had overrun the byzatine culture. Some traces of the byzantine culture can be spotted with orthodox christians. Another point is, that the byzantine empire was centered in the extreme south-east of Europe (in somewhat modern day turkey and Greece), so there was little influence from the byzantine empire to the region of modern day Hungary, Romania, slowakia, Poland,... because the empire was mainly surrounded by the black sea, mountains (the balkans) and open plains (inhabbited).

There were several West African empires. The Ashanti Empire was based in the present-day Ashanti Region of Ghana from 1701 to 1894. The Bamana Empire was based in present-day Mali from 1712 to 1896. The Benin Empire from 1440 to 1897 consisted of most of present-day Nigeria. The Kaabu Empire was based in present-day northeast Guinea-Bissau as well as parts of Senegal. The Kong Empire was based in present-day northeast Cote dâ??Ivoire from 1710 to 1898. The Oyo Empire was based in what is present-day western Nigeria from 1400 to 1895.
What geographical location was the byzantine empire considered to be in?
The Byzantine Empire is another name for the Eastern Roman Empire. Its capital and governmental institutions were all centered around the city of Constantinople (modern-day Istanbul) and it maintained a grip on the lands around it until the city fell to the Ottomans in 1453. Thus, it can be considered that the Byzantines were generally in the Balkans, specifically the Balkan Peninsula, as the empire did not reach into Anatolia in its dying days.The contemporary people, however, didn't see it as such and often referred to the Byzantines as "Romans" and the empire as the "Roman Empire". In their time, the Byzantine Empire was considered a part of Western Europe, despite the Western Roman Empire having fallen long ago.Indeed, the term "Byzantine Empire" and the distinctions between the Eastern and Western Roman Empires were only derived after the fall of Constantinople.
