I'm not a historian but I'm super curious about what impact the Byzantine empire has had on Greece's culture and overall history.
While the Greeks were teaching mathematics, philosophy, science and the arts the majority of the world were barbarians. The empire that you reference (Rome) all of the above was copied from the Greeks. Constantine was an Italian that became Greek Orthodox. Because he reverted back to the truth while the West corrupted Gods word.Basically, after Constantine the great took power, and moved the capitol of the empire to Constantinople there was a huge Hellenic influence in the Byzantine empire. Previous to that, much of the empire had Italian or "Latin" influence on Greece.
