In the eleventh century, the Byzantine Empire faced significant threats from both internal and external sources. Externally, the Seljuk Turks began encroaching on Byzantine territories, culminating in the decisive Battle of Manzikert in 1071, which resulted in the loss of much of Anatolia. Internally, the empire struggled with political instability, civil strife, and a decline in central authority, which weakened its ability to respond effectively to these external pressures. Additionally, the rising power of the Normans in the west further complicated the empire's position, leading to territorial losses in southern Italy.

It continued on as the premier power center of civilization & culture of the Eastern Mediterranean for about a 1000 years, until it was conquered by the Ottomans...
