The Byzantine Empire was the eastern half of the Roman Empire, but when Rome fell to barbaric conquerors such as Alaric the Byzantine Empire stayed strong.

Constantinople, named after Constantine, the Roman Emperor who converted to Christianity on the battlefield, was originally called Byzantium, and it was the center of the Byzantine Empire.

The two most famous people of the Byzantine Empire was Emperor Justinian and his empress, Theodora. They were famous because of their efforts to reunite the Mediterranean under Roman rule. Unfortunately Theodora died of cancer in June of 548, but she and her husband reconquered the Mediterranean before her death.
