Extractions: Byzantine Empire Byzantine Empire, successor state to the Roman Empire (see under Rome ), also called Eastern Empire and East Roman Empire. It was named after Byzantium, which Emperor Constantine I rebuilt ( A.D. 330) as Constantinople and made the capital of the entire Roman Empire. Although not foreseen at the time, a division into Eastern and Western empires became permanent after the accession (395) of Honorius in the West and Arcadius in the East. Throughout its existence the Byzantine Empire was subject to important changes in its boundaries. The core of the empire consisted of the Balkan Peninsula (i.e., Thrace, Macedonia, Epirus, Greece proper, the Greek isles, and Illyria) and of Asia Minor (present-day Turkey). The empire combined Roman political tradition, Hellenic culture, and Christian beliefs. Greek was the prevalent language, but Latin long continued in official use. See the table entitled Rulers of the Byzantine Empire for a list of all the Byzantine emperors and the years they reigned.

Extractions: Maps 1. The Roman Empire in the III century AD and the birth of the "byzantine" empire The Roman Empire at 260 AD. The numerous problem in maintaining the empire compelled Emperor Diocletian to split it in half. The Western half will fall, while the Eastern half will survive and become the "Byzantine Empire" Diocletian realized that a world-spread empire could not be kept under control by one only man, so decided to divide the empire in four parts, two of them (east and west) ruled by an "August", each of whom named a "Caesar", who ruled the other two parts (respectively far east and far west). The father of Constantine, Constantius Chlorus, was one of the two Caesars, and as he died its troops claimed Constantine himself emperor (even if it wasn't legal). There is no room to examine the fight that followed within the empire, I will only say that eventually Constantine defeated his last opponents, Maxentius and then Licinius, and became sole emperor of the whole roman empire, in 323.

http://www.corfuweb.gr/gb-history3.htm

Extractions: HISTORY OF CORFU THE BYZANTINE EMPIRE 733 1204 One of the few significant events in this period, was the spreading of Christianity in Corfu during the 1st centrury AD. The Corfiots received the word of the new religion from the apostles Jason and Sossipatros, who have ever since been honoured with gratitude. At this stage the official language of the East Roman Empire was Latin. However within the Greek territories Latin began to disappear and the Greek language started taking over. This development indicated the start of a new awareness differentiating it from the West. A turning point in this evolution was the decision taken by Leon the Isaurian in 733, to remove the church of Western Greece (Illyria, Ipirus, and Corfu) from the Popes jurisdiction, and to place it under the patriarchy of Constantinople. It was an act that underlined the differences and oppositions of the two worlds, Greek and Latin, an opposition that would finally lead to the schism of the two churches. ADMINISTRATIVE ORGANISATION With the abolition of the administrative division of the Eastern Roman state, the Byzantine Empire was organized into: the Archi which was the emperor; into Themata i.e. large geographical areas under the supervision of a general; and finally into provinces which were ruled by the Byzantine Eparchos. Corfu was a province within the Thematos of Kefallinias.

Extractions: Greek empress Irene ranks with Egyptian queen Hatshepsut and Russian empress Catherine the Great as a breaker of male-dominated dynasties. Introduction When Irene of Athens was crowned sole ruler of the Byzantine Empire in 797, she became the first woman ever to hold the throne of the old Roman Empire. The Byzantine Empire, also known as the East Roman Empire, was founded by Constantine I in 330. It was all that remained of the Roman Empire after Rome was sacked in 476. Irene ranks with Egyptian queen Hatshepsut and Russian empress Catherine the Great as a breaker of male-dominated dynasties. Her illegal claim to the throne allowed the Frank king Charlemagne to be crowned Roman emperor in the West. This coronation ended the Byzantine Empire's power in Europe and forever changed European history. Irene was born around 752 to a noble Greek family of Athens. No information exists about her childhood. It is believed that her beauty alone gained her a marriage in 769 to Leo IV, who became the Byzantine emperor in 775. A year after they were married, Irene gave birth to a son, Constantine VI. When Leo IV died in 780, Constantine VI became emperor with Irene as his regent (the person who would rule in his place until he came of age).

Extractions: This interpretive analysis describes the important role of the medieval Orthodox Church during its formative period. The first section discusses landmarks in ecclesiastical affairs within the Empire and the increasingly influential contacts with neighbors. Part II examines the nature and structure of the Church, its officials and organization, its form of monasticism, the development of the eucharist and the liturgical year, and the spirituality of laity, monks, and clergy. "At last there is a scholarly, sympathetic, readable, monograph-length history in English of the church of the Byzantine empire. Educated general readers and interested students, as well as scholars moving out of their narrow specialities, now have a place to go to learn about the history of the Byzantine church." American Historical Review "Quite unique in its scrutiny of Byzantine history from the vantage point of its ecclesiastical development....A significant and most valuable achievement....Both the novice and the specialist in Byzantine history will find this book an invaluable assemblage of information and digest of perspectives, of use for years to come."

Extractions: Constantine decided to found a new Rome, and in AD 324 he moved the capital to the East, to the Greek city Byzantium on the Bosporus. He named the city Constantinople after himself. The empire was still Rome, though, and the inhabitants called themselves Romans or Romei in Greek. The Byzantine, or East Roman, Empire covered today's Balkan Peninsula, plus western Turkey, Syria, Jordan, Israel, Lebanon, Cyprus, Egypt and east Libya. Most people spoke Greek, but other languages such as Latin, Armenian and Coptic were also spoken. There was a close relationship between the emperor and the church, and it was during the Byzantine period that many standards were set for the Orthodox Church. Most land was owned by the emperor and the church, and the empires major economical factor was agriculture but also trade. In the 5th and 6th century the Byzantine armies had to fight both the invading Huns and Goths, but managed to secure the Empire.

http://www.interkriti.org/crhis1.htm

Extractions: Minoan Period (2.600-1.100 BC) The Minoan civilisation is probably the biggest reason Crete is known. The Minoans established a naval empire in the Mediterranean during this period. During this time, art and science flourished. Their civilisation vanished abruptly, the most probable explanation being that the sudden eruption of the volcanoe in Thira (Santorini) created huge tidal waves that swept away all traces of civilisation. Dorians (1.100-67 BC) The Dorian years were marked by the first appearance of iron tools, and the deterioration of the Minoan Empire to various city-states. Roman Period - First Byzantine Period (67 BC-824 AD) Crete was occupied at 67 BC by the Romans. Gortys, became the capital of the province of Crete. Crete, becomes part of the Byzantine empire from 325 AD to 824 AD and is converted to Christianity.

When this empire was broken up by the Mongol invasion, one of the remaining local powers became known as the Ottoman dynasty, after its leader OSMAN I. The OTTOMAN EMPIRE spread from northwestern Anatolia and captured Constantinople in 1453. At the peak of their power the Ottomans controlled much of the eastern Mediterranean. The Ottomans had a sophisticated system of internal administration and also organized the first standing army in Europe. As the Ottoman Empire began to collapse under its own weight in the 18th and 19th centuries, it became a battleground for rival European powers, wedged as it was between the Russian and Austrian empires (see EASTERN QUESTION). By the outbreak of World War I the Ottoman Empire had essentially been divided into spheres of influence by the great European powers, but a reform movement was active within the Ottoman Empire itself. The YOUNG TURKS brought about a revolution in 1908 and were successful in introducing civil and social reforms of far-reaching consequence. In 1922, however, the Turks, led by Mustafa Kemal (later known as Kemal ATATURK) and Ismet INONU, defeated the armies occupying Anatolia. Inonu then won what has been called "the greatest diplomatic victory in history" when the Treaty of Lausanne (see LAUSANNE, TREATY OF) recognized the Republic of Turkey. The republic was declared on Oct. 29, 1923, and Ataturk was elected its first president. Turkey remained neutral in World War II until it joined the Allies in February 1945. Turkey joined the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) in 1952.
