The Byzantines were people of the Byzantine Empire, which was called the Roman Empire during the Middle Ages. The reason it is called Byzantine is to distinguish it from the ancient Roman Empire, the Carolingian Empire, and the Holy Roman Empire, all of which were called the Roman Empire by at least someone.

The Byzantines provided a center of learning, government, and trade through the Middle Ages, until they were conquered by the Ottoman Turks, an event many call the end of the Middle Ages.
