Orthodox Christianity
The term Byzantine Empire has been coined by historians to indicate the eastern part of the Roman Empire after the fall of the western part of this empire. The 'east' continued to exist for nearly 1,000 years after the fall of the 'west.' The people in question did not even know the term "Byzantine" and called their empire Roman Empire. In other words, the so-called Byzantine Empire was the continuation of the Roman Empire. The so-called Byzantines saw themselves as Romans. The religion of the eastern part of the Roman Empire had developed before the fall of the western part of this empire. It was called Greek or Eastern Christianity, and it was the main form of Christianity in this part of the empire. The main form of Christianity in the western part of the empire was called Latin or Western Christianity. Later, they came to be called Orthodox and Catholic respectively.
Christianity changed what people thought about the Byzantine society.
The Byzantine form of Christianity was eventually called Orthodox. In 1056, the Roman and Byzantine churches split over a number of doctrinal controversies.
The religion of the eastern empire was Orthodox Christianity.
The Christians of the Byzantine Empire did not want to recognize the pope in Rome as their leader, so in 1054 they agreed to divide from the Catholic Church and form their own branch of Christianity. This divide was called the great schism.
