What was Russia's connection with the eastern Roman Empire?
One connection between the Eastern Roman Empire (which historians also call Byzantine Empire) and Russia was the conversion of Russia to Orthodox Christianity (the religion of the Byzantine Empire) by Byzantine missionaries. This religion became Russia's religion in 989. The other connection was royal marriage. Soon after the fall of the Byzantine Empire and the capture of its capital, Constantinople, by the Ottoman Turks, Ivan III of Russia, who had married Sophia Paleologue, a niece of Constantine XI, the last Byzantine emperor, claimed that he was the heir of the fallen Empire. The Russians also saw themselves as the upholders of the religion of the Byzantine Empire, which had been taken over by the Muslim Turks. In 1501 a Russian monk, Filofey, wrote an ode to Ivan's successor, Vasili III, in which he said that: "Two Romes have fallen [Rome and Constantinople]. The third stands. And there will be no fourth. No one shall replace your Christian Tsardom!" The Russians called Russia the "Third Rome."
