The Byzantine Empire was the Eastern half of the Roman Empire. It was centered on the city of Constantinople (formerly Byzantion, from whence the name 'Byzantine' derives) and survived the fall of the Western Roman Empire, lasting until the year 1453 A.D. The Byzantine Empire was the center of Orthodox Christianity, with the Patriarch of Constantinople wielding influence to rival the Pope during the height of the Empire.
