The eastern threat to the Byzantines were the Arabs, who conquered the Byzantine Levant (Syria, Lebanon and Israel/Palestine) and Egypt, the Seljuk Turks who conquered part of Anatolia (modern Turkey) and the Ottoman Turks who conquered the remaining land of this empire and brought it to an end. At one point there was also conflict to the north-east with the Russians. This ended when Vladimir the Great married the daughter of the Byzantine emperor and converted to Orthodox Christianity.

How did the Christian leaders of the byzantine Empire feel about the Muslim Ottomans taking over territory so close to the Byzantine Empire?

Christian leaders of the Byzantine Empire viewed the expansion of the Muslim Ottomans with great concern and alarm, as it posed a direct threat to their territories and religious authority. The Ottomans’ advance was seen not only as a military challenge but also as a potential undermining of Christianity in the region. This fear intensified with the fall of Constantinople in 1453, which marked a significant loss for Christendom and was perceived as a catastrophic blow to Christian influence in the region. The Byzantine leaders sought to rally support from Western Europe, but their efforts were largely met with indifference.


Who posed an eastern threat to the Byzantine Empire?

It was migrations in Europe to the north of the empire. During this migration period there were two migratory movements of Germanic peoples. In one there were migrations from Sweden and Denmark to eastern and central Europe. In the other there were migrations from northern Germany to Central Germany. The former migrations initially affected the empire in the east as the Goths and Gepids attacked this part of the empire from the Black Sea and from the river Danube. Later, the initial invaders of the empire in the west came from this movement. The latter migrations put pressure on the Franks and the Alenanni who lived around the frontier on the River Rhine. The arrival of the Huns in eastern Europe and part of central Europe led to the invasion of Gaul by peoples who lived in central Europe: the Vandals, Sueves, Alans and Burgundians. The vandals Alans and Sueves then moved on to Spain. The vandals and Alans moved on again, this time to Africa. Subsequently, the Alemanni also invaded and the Franks, who had been allowed to settle in Belgium, eventually took over the whole of Gaul. The Angles, Saxons and Jutes who had migrated from northern to central Germany migrated to Britannia. The western empire lost most of its lands.

What people provided the most serious challenge to Byzantine authority in the Balkan peninsula?

The most serious challenge to Byzantine authority in the Balkan Peninsula came from the Slavic peoples, particularly during the 6th and 7th centuries. The Slavs migrated into the region, establishing their own settlements and political structures, which undermined Byzantine control. Additionally, the rise of the Bulgarian Empire in the late 7th century posed a significant military threat, leading to conflicts that further weakened Byzantine influence in the area. This combination of Slavic migration and the emergence of powerful local states significantly altered the balance of power in the Balkans.
