The Valens aqueduct was the longest aqueduct of Constantinople. It was redeveloped several times and reached a length of 250 kilometres. iI was the longest aqueduct in antiquity.
Rome and Constantinople use be a united empire, until the Roman Empire was split into two, east and west. In 330 CE, the emperor Constantine, the first emperor to convert to Christianity, moved the capital east to Byzantium and changed its name to Constantinople. but i dont think there is really a difference, only that the east is affeciant when it came to trading and making goods such as artifacts.
The first invaders to reach the city of Rome were the Gauls, specifically the Senones tribe, who sacked the city in 390 BCE. This event marked a significant moment in Roman history, leading to the construction of defensive walls around the city. Later, during the late Roman Empire, various groups such as the Visigoths and Vandals also invaded and threatened Rome, with the Visigoths famously sacking the city in 410 CE.
The first Hippodrome in today's Istanbul was built by the Roman emperor Septimius Severus in the beginning of the 3rd century as one of series of reconstructions in ancient Byzantium. In fact, he was the one who had punished Byzantium and destroyed almost the entire city for supporting his enemy, clearly the loosing side. The hippodrome was enlarged and renovated by Constantine the Great when the city was made the capital of the eastern Roman Empire as Constantinople in the 4th century. Some claims that the capacity of the hippodrome reached 100,000 seats, but recent findings show that this figure appears to be exaggerated.

none of them. the fourth crusade was probably most successful in capturing Constantinople, it was not the initial goal of recapturing Jerusalem.
The fourth crusade was in the year of 1202 until 1204. The crusade was not able to reach the Holy Land due to the lack of funds. it was agreed to change path so they went in Constantinople.

The British Isles, France and Germany. They discovered and settled Iceland, Greenland and Vinland (Newfoundland). The Vikings' eastern cousins ventured into Russia and reached Constantinople.

The Byzantine Empire reached its peak during Justinian's rule. Around 532, a great and devastating fire swept through Constantinople. As a response, Justinian launched a program to make Constantinople bigger and grander; this resulted in the construction of the Hagia Sophia (which is a church). tl;dr Yes.
They walked. The rulers of kingdoms they were passing through often sent their own troops to escort them and prevent looting/foraging. Usually leaders of crusader groups contacted the leaders of the lands they were passing to ask permission to cross. Once they reached the lands of the Byzantine Empire, Emperor Alexis had them quickly escorted to Constantinople.
