Most Orthodox churches call their leader a patriarch. However, the Coptic Orthodox Church of Alexandria uses the term pope. The Byzantine Rite of the Catholic Church as well as other eastern rites of the Catholic Church also uses the term patriarch, equivalent of an archbishop.

Byzantines used to call them Romans-Romanoi-, it could be more appropriate to call them eastern romans.
The Romans saw Ceres as their counterpart of Demeter..
Yes, as the eastern part of the empire, which historians call the Byzantine, began to gain prominence and dominance in the reign of Constantine which was from 307 to 337. The Byzantine empire fell in 1453. Do the math and you'll see how long the Byzantine part of the empire lasted.Yes, as the eastern part of the empire, which historians call the Byzantine, began to gain prominence and dominance in the reign of Constantine which was from 307 to 337.

The Byzantine Empire was the original East half of the Roman Empire. After Rome's collapse, the Byzantine Empire lived through. The most famous of its rulers were Emperor Justinian and his Empress Theodora. With most of Europe under siege of barbaric groups such as the Franks, who settled in France, Justinian and Theodora had their sights set on regaining Rome's past territories along the Mediterranean Sea, wanting to regain it and call it once again 'A Roman Lake'
In Roman mythology, Apollos counterpart is the god Apollo. Apollo is the Greek god of the sun, light, music, prophecy, healing, and truth, among other things. He is often associated with harmony, order, and reason.
Rome, of course!
Byzantine Empire
The Papal States did not exist when the Eastern Romans (or Byzantines, as historians call them) ruled the Exarchate of Ravenna in central Italy. The Papal States were formed after he Byzantines left central Italy and covered the territory of the Former Exarchate of Ravenna. Prior to this, Rome was in the Duchy of Rome, which was part of the Exarchate of Ravenna and which was headed by a dux, a Byzantine imperial official. There was often conflict between the popes and the Byzantines who were in charge in Rome. This was because the Byzantine emperor often interfered with politics in Rome or tried to impose his will on the bishop of Rome (the pope). This was aggravated by the fact that the Byzantine emperor was the head of the Orthodox Church, while the pope was the head of the Catholic Church and the two churches were at times at odds with each other. The Exarchate of Ravenna became increasingly unable to respond to attacks by the Lombards. Some of these attacks concerned the Duchy of Rome.

Okay, so the Roman empire was so big that it could not be ruled by one person affectively, so the empire was slip into two, the "Western Roman empire"and "Eastern Roman empire!" Long story short, the Western Roman empire fell apart after having a lot of bad rulers and Rome fell into the hands of a barbarian king. So basically the Eastern Roman empire could not call them self the Roman empire, as they didn't have control of Rome! So that's why they change the name to Byzantine empire! (Even though they changed the name, they were 100% Roman by blood and culture! )
