Rome became the nominal capital of the whole empire. Byzantium was renamed Constantinople.

Byzantium
Emperor Constantine the Great moved the capital of the Byzantine/Roman Empire from Rome to Constantinople around 330 AD. He felt that Rome was an unsatisfactory capital. Rome was too far from the frontiers. Constantinople provided easy trade and military access to the Mediterranean, Black Sea, Danube River, Dnieper River, and the land route to Turkestan and India.

Constantine did not move the imperial capital form Rome to Byzantium. Rome had already ceased to be the capital when his predecessor, Diocletian, designated Nicomedia (in north-western Turkey) as the imperial capital of the eastern part of the empire and Milan (in Italy) as the imperial capital of the western part of the empire. Constantine redeveloped Byzantium and renamed it. It became Constantinople (City of Constantine). It was inaugurated in 330.
