Why did the byzantine emperors fear the seljuk Turks?
Asked by Wiki User
The Seljuk Turks were a large and threatening force in the Middle East during the Middle Ages, and the Byzantine Empire suffered a crippling defeat at their hands at the Battle of Manzikert in 1071. Taking advantage of this victory and the ensuing turmoil within the Empire, the Turks were able to seize most of Asia Minor and remained a threat to the Byzantines for the remainder of the Empire's existence.
