The only similarity was geographic. Both empires were centred abound the Mediterranean. In fact, the Ottoman possessions around the Mediterranean covered areas which has been previously part of the Roman Empire. The main geographical differences were that 1) the Roman Empire also covered northern Morocco, the Mediterranean shores in western Europe (Spain, France, Italy and Malta), Slovenia and Croatia, which the Ottomans did not conquer; 2) the Ottoman Empire included areas of the Middle East (Persia, Iraq, the Persian Gulf coast down to close to the peninsula of Qatar, the Arab and Yemeni coasts on the Red Sea) and eastern Sudan, Eritrea, and a small part of the coast north-eastern Somalia, which the Romans did not conquer.
The Byzantines were officially defeated after the fall of Constantinople in 1453 to the forces of Sultan Mehmed II under the Turkish Ottoman Empire. The siege went on from April 6 to May 29. The Venetian navy from the West did attempt to reinforce the region, but could not get access to the port due to the Ottoman Navy standing in their way.
It depends on the century the question refers to. In the 16th Century, the Ottoman Empire was the most powerful empire west of China. In the 19th Century, the Ottoman Empire was one of the weakest empires in the world and called the "Sick Man of Europe".

Anatolia has had a large number of names across time. You may wish to be specific as to what timeframe you are referring to. The last name Turkey had prior to being called Turkey was the Ottoman Empire.

The rise of nationalism in the Empire eventually caused the break-down of the Ottoman millet (confessional community) concept.
I think you have your times confused. The Roman empire was in existence roughly a thousand years before the historical period called the middle ages. The two did not overlap, at least not in the west. Life was no more difficult for Christians in the time of the Roman empire than it was for anyone else, except during the times of persecution. And even in those times, Christians were not rigorously hunted down. By the time the middle ages came around everyone was a Christian and life was hard for everyone except the kings and members of the upper classes.

The origin is the Magyar (Hungarian) word "Szabla" which means "to cut down". It is the name given to the curved steel cavalry swords developed in Europe the 18th century , the design is possibly derived from the scimitar swords used in the Ottoman Empire and Middle East.
