The three candidates for the title of 'Greatest Early Byzantine Emperor' would most likely be Constantine I, founder of Constantinople; Justinian I, who built the Hagia Sophia and reclaimed large parts of the Western Empire; and Heraclius I, who led a brilliant military campaign which brought the Empire back from the brink of destruction against the Persians but ultimately was defeated by the first wave of Islamic expansion

Why was the Byzantine Empire considered a theocracy?

The Byzantine Empire (the surviving, and Greek, part of the Roman Empire) was not a theocracy; it had a secular ruler, not a priest as ruler. However, the Greek Orthodox Church had a significant role in Greek society, and in matters where the Church had a considerable interest, its concerns would have been taken into account, and even guided the ruler's decision. As the Byzantine Empire shrank over its 1000 year history, the Greek Patriarch of Constantinople came to be the undisputed head of the Church in the Byzantine Empire, but he was never actual or defacto ruler of the state.
