It was taken over by the Ottoman Turks in 1453 and became the capital of the Ottoman Empire. It was then called Istanbul or, in some official documents, Kostantiniyye.

After ten years of civil war where did Constantine establish the capital of the Eastern Empire?
Constantine never had a thing to do with the "eastern" empire or the "western" empire. He moved the capital of the Roman empire to the eastern city of Constantinople. The connotation of eastern and western was not made by the ancients, but is a term invented by historians to clarify the part of the empire they would be writing about. The ancients considered the empire one, and they all considered themselves Roman.
