@germany2026_: ROMANS and BYZANTINES #europe #rome #geography #History #capcut The Roman Empire traditionally began in 753 BC as a small monarchy on the banks of the Tiber, evolving into a powerful Republic and eventually a vast Empire under Augustus in 27 BC, characterized by its military hegemony, Roman law, and unprecedented infrastructure that unified the Mediterranean. However, due to its ungovernable size and internal crises, Emperor Theodosius I permanently divided it in 395 AD between his sons, giving formal birth to the Eastern Roman Empire, later known as the Byzantine Empire. While the Western half collapsed in 476 AD under Germanic invasions, the Eastern half, with its capital in Constantinople, preserved the Greco-Roman legacy and Orthodox Christianity for another thousand years, merging Roman administration with Greek culture until its fall in 1453 to the Ottomans marked the definitive end of the Middle Ages and the state heritage of Rome.
