The Roman Empire lasted in Constantinople, known as Byzantium before its renaming, for over a millennium after the fall of the Western Roman Empire in 476 AD. The Eastern Roman Empire, commonly referred to as the Byzantine Empire, continued until the fall of Constantinople to the Ottoman Turks in 1453. This marks a duration of approximately 977 years in which Constantinople served as the capital of a Roman state.
The Roman Empire never actually fell but relocated it's capital to Byzantium and converted to Christianity at around the same time because of the emperor Constantine the Great. This move is often stated to have ended the Roman Empire in 476 AD but the peoples of Byzantium and those they ruled never stopped calling themselves Romans and never called their empire the Byzantine Empire as this was a fabrication by historians to separate the pagan Roman Empire from the Christian Roman Empire and to separate the Holy Roman Empire from the Roman Empire to prevent confusion. The Roman Empire with it's capital at Byzantium / Constantinople fell in 1453 with the fall of Constantinople meaning that the Roman Empire after it moved to Constantinople lasted around 977 years.
The Byzantine Empire
The Ottoman Empire did not directly end the Roman Empire, as the Western Roman Empire had already fallen in 476 AD, long before the rise of the Ottomans. The Eastern Roman Empire, or Byzantine Empire, continued until the Ottomans captured Constantinople in 1453. This conquest marked the end of the Byzantine Empire and solidified the Ottoman Empire's dominance in the region. Thus, while the Ottomans played a significant role in the fall of the Byzantine Empire, they did not end the Roman Empire in its entirety.

When the Roman Empire was split into two, and the Western Roman Empire was then taken over by the Germanic invaders, for a thousand years Constantinople (ex-Byzantium) was the capital and centre of the Roman (Byzantine) Empire, maintaining the Graeco-Roman civilisation in a Europe degrading into the Dark Age. It maintained this remnant of civilisation for long enough for the Renaissance in central and western Europe to begin the long hard road to modern civilisation, until the Byzantine Empire was snuffed out by the Turkish invaders.
The last capital of the western part of the Roman Empire was Ravenna. It replaced Milan as the capital on 402.

Alexander the Great, but it didn't last very long.
The Romans never controlled Istanbul, which is the name the Turks gave to the city of Constantinople, which had been the capital of the Byzantine empire. The Ottoman Turks conquered the last remaining land of the Byzantine Empire then took over Constantinople in 1453. 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.
