What king ruled over the powerful Eastern Empire and chose to move its capital to Byzantium?
Byzantium was redeveloped, turned into the capital of the eastern part of the Roman Empire and renamed Constantinople in 330 by Constantine the Great. He was not a king, he was an emperor. He was not the emperor of the eastern part of the Roman Empire either. To start with he was a co-emperor. There were several co-emperors who ruled parts of the Roman Empire. He was in charge of Britannia, Gaul and Spain in the western part of the Roman Empire. Later he became the sole emperor of the whole of the Roman Empire. Not long before the above, Emperor Diocletian designated Nicomedia (in northwestern Turkey) as the imperial capital of the eastern part of the Roman Empire and Milan as the imperial capital of the western part of the Roman Empire. He co-ruled with co-emperor Maximian. He took charge of the eastern part of the empire and Maximian took charge of the western part. It has to be stressed that Diocletian did not split the empire, which remained a single and united empire. It was an administrative arrangement designed to improve the defences of the vast frontiers of the Roman Empire. Eastern Roman Empire and Western Roman Empire are terms which have been coined by historians. The Romans had only one term: Roman Empire. Constantine the Great moved the capital of the eastern part of the Roman Empire from Nicomedia to the nearby Byzantium.
