TORTILLERA
Roman law was an important part of Byzantine culture because the Byzantine Empire was the Roman Empire. Byzantine Empire is a term which has been coined by historians to indicate the eastern part of the Roman Empire after the fall of the western part. The eastern part of the Roman Empire continued to exist for nearly 1,000 years after the fall of the western part of the Roman Empire. The people in question did not use this term. They called their empire Roman Empire or Romania (this referred to this empire and not the country which was later called Romania). The term Byzantine is derived from Byzantium, the Greek city which was redeveloped, turned into the imperial capital of the eastern part of the Roman Empire and renamed Constantinople by the emperor Constantine the Great in 330. It is used to indicate the fact that not long after the fall of the west, this empire became centred on Greece and Greek in character after it lost most of its non-Greek territories. Greek replaced Latin as the official language of this empire in 620, some 150 years after the fall of the west.

Constantine I or (the Great) did not have any connection with the Byzantine Empire and the Byzantine Empire did not exist historically. Byzantine Empire is a term coined by historians to indicate the eastern part of the Roman Empire after the fall of the western part of the Roman Empire. The Romans did not use this term, they called it Roman Empire or Romania (this referred to this empire and not the country which was later called Romania). According to dating conventions, the beginning of the Byzantine Empire was in 476. Constantine's reign as sole emperor of the whole Roman Empire (both the eastern and the western parts) was from 324 to 337, well before the period which historians call the Byzantine period. One indirect contribution he made was the creation of Constantinople, which later became the capital of the so-called Byzantine Empire, and the site he chose for it, which historians used the coin the term Byzantine. The term Byzantine is derived from Byzantium, the Greek city which was redeveloped, turned into the imperial capital of the eastern part of the Roman Empire and renamed Constantinople by Constantine in 330. It is used to indicate the fact that not long after the fall of the western part, this empire became centred on Greece and Greek in character after it lost most of its non-Greek territories. Greek replaced Latin as the official language of this empire in 620, some 150 years after the fall of the west.
