Why was the byzantine stronger than the western roman empire?

The Byzantine Empire was not stronger than the "Western" Roman Empire. "Byzantine Empire" is a term which has been coined to denote the eastern part of the Roman Empire AFTER the fall of the western part of the Roman Empire. Therefore, by definition, it could not have been stronger than the western Roman Empire. The eastern part of the Roman Empire was not stronger than the western part of this empire either. The western part fell under the strain of the invasions by the Germanic peoples. The eastern part was not affected by these invasions and that is why if continued to exist (for nearly 100 years). The so-called "Byzantine Empire" was a continuation of the Roman Empire. The term Byzantine was coined by a German historian in the 16th century in relation to the history of the eastern part of the Roman Empire after the fall of the western part of this empire (Historia Byzantina). The western part of the Roman empire fell under the strain of the invasions by the Germanic peoples. The eastern part was not affected by these invasions and continued to exist for nearly 1,000 years. The terms Byzantine and Byzantine Empire became common in Western Europe in the 19th century. The people in question did not know these terms and called their empire Roman Empire or Empire of the Romans (Imperium Romanum or Imperium Romanorum in Latin and Basileia ton Rhomaion or Arche ton Rhomaion in Greek), or Roman Realm (Romania in Latin and Rhomania in Greek). The term Byzantine is derived from Byzantium, the Greek city which was redeveloped, turned into Constantine the Great's imperial capital and renamed after himself as Constantinople (City of Constantine) 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.


How was the Roman Empire ultimately divided up?

The Roman Empire was divided into two halves, with the Eastern half being more prosperous than the Western. The capitol of the Western Empire was Rome, and the capitol of the Eastern was Byzantium/Constantinople/Istanbul. When the Western half of the Empire fell to so called "barbarians," the Eastern half continued to flourish as what is now known as the Byzantine Empire.
