Constantinople was originally named Byzantium by the Greeks who founded a colony there in the 7th century BCE. It was renamed Konstantinoupolis (Constantinople) after Constantine I in 324 CE; Constantine transferred the capital of the Roman Empire from Rome to Constantinople in 330 CE. Constantinople's modern name, Istanbul, comes from the Greek phrase 'eis tin polin' which means 'into the City.' After the Republic of Turkey was created in 1923, the Turkish government began to officially reject the use of Constantinople as an acceptable name for Istanbul.
