The Byzantines were officially defeated after the fall of Constantinople in 1453 to the forces of Sultan Mehmed II under the Turkish Ottoman Empire. Before that, the Empire had suffered a civil war with a government change, the sacking of Constantinople by the Latin crusaders from the Venetian Republic, and after the catastrophic defeat at the Battle of Manzikert, the Themas (theme) military and organizational system fell apart. By the time the Empire of Nicaea, one of the states that rose up after the sacking, took back Constantinople from the Latin Empire, they had 1/3 the military strength before the sacking. Much of the trade had gone westward toward the Italian cities. Before 1453, the Empire was basically reduced to a few cities with small mercenary garrisons.
