How did Justinian come to power?

Justinian's reign was marked by the ambitious (but ultimately failed) Renovatio Imperii, or "restoration of the empire". The achievement of this ambition came in the form of the partial recovery of the territories of the Western Roman Empire, including the city of Rome itself. He also rewrote Roman law, the 'Corpus Juris Civilis', which is still the basis of civil law in many modern states. His reign marked the blossoming of Byzantine culture, and his building program yielded such masterpieces as the church of Hagia Sophia in Constantinople, which became the center of Eastern Orthodox Christianity for many centuries. He outlawed all religions except Christianity, which he saw as the upcoming popular religion, and which he wanted to align himself with as a major supporter. He was very savvy about politics and the people, and he made sure he remained one step ahead of his enemies.

What was a result of Justinian's attempt to reunite the eastern and western halves of the old roman empire?

Justinian I did not try to reunite the eastern halves of the Roman Empire. He wanted to 'restore' the Roman Empire by reconquering the lands lost by the western part of the Roman Empire when it fell as a result of the Germanic invasions. He succeed in taking Tunisia and eastern Algeria, Italy and southern Sapin. Howeever, these territories were lost again. Justinian's army defeated the Vandals in Africa (Vandalic War, 533-534) retaking the area of the Vandalic kingdom (northern Tunisia and eastern Algeria). Then it had to fight a rebellion by the local Berbers until 548 to take southern Tunisia and western Libya. Justinian wanted to restore Africa as it had been under the Romans. The religion of the Vandals, Arian Christianity, was persecuted. Many Vandals fled Africa and some went west, to Algeria, and integrated with the local Berbers. The remaining Vandals were shipped to the east and enlisted in the imperial army. The Vandal ethnic group disappeared. This area bought great revenues for Justinian.It was conquered by the Arabs between the 670s and the 690s. Justinian's army fought the Ostrogoths in Italy in the Gothic War (535-54) which was eventually won. However, this was a very costly victory. Nineteen years of fierce fighting left some areas of northern Italy devastated and depopulated. The war depleted the resources of the empire. This and the impoverishment of Italy made it impossible for the Byzantines to oppose the invasion of northern Italy by the Lombards fifteen year later (569-72). The Lombards also took over areas of central and southern Italy. The remaining Byzantine possessions in Italy were in part of central Italy and in Apulia, Sicily, Sardinia and Corsica. Justinian managed to retake most of southern Spain from the Visigoths on 559. The Visigoths retook this area sixty-five years later (n 624).
