Was the byzantine emperor wise in asking Venice for help against the vikings?
No, even if Venice saved the Byzantines from the Vikings,Venetian ships and merchants soon controlled most of the empire's trade. That meant a great loss of income for the Byzantines.
Why did the capture of Constantinople by the Ottomans mark the end of the byzantine empire when Constantinople was captured by Venice before during the Fourth Crusade?
The Byzantine Empire did not recover from the fall of Constantinople to the Turks because the Turks were a strong local power which captured all of the remaining byzantine territory. Whereas the 4th Crusaders were few in number after they divided up the empire and they only captured part of the Byzantine Empire, the remainder of the Empire split into independent Byzantine powers, one of which the Empire of Nicaea eventually recaptured Constantinople and restored the Byzantine Empire.
Why is the Venice home to a vast amount of Byzantine art?
Venice was a dependency of the Byzantine Empire when it gained control of Italy. This continued after the Byzantines lost northern Italy because of the Lombard invasion and survived the takeover of Italy by the Franks. This kept Venice separate from the Holy Roman Empire and kept her linked to Constantinople, even though she gradually gained effective independence. The first crusade, which was fought to help the Byzantines, and where Venice and the other Italian sea republics supplied the navy, increased commercial ties with the Byzantine Empire. Venice was the prime trading link between Constantinople and Western Europe.
