Not only was it the center of trade routes but Constantinople traded too. Then had ivory, silks, and furs. It was a very elegant city filled with riches! A French soldier said " One could not believe there was so rich a city in the whole world!" At one point Constantinople had around one million people living there! Also because it was a peninsula it was able to build an easy defense system. Constantinople had a large chain that was placed in the water to block intruders. They also built a huge wall, it covered all of the land around Constantinople so no one could get in without people knowing.
