Constantinople was once the great capital of the Byzantine Empire or Eastern Roman Empire which lasted for more than one thousand years from the fall of Rome 476A.D. to the Ottoman siege led by Mehmed II in 1453. It stood on the Bosporus at the point between Europe and Asia Minor and also between the Mediterranean and the black sea. The city stood as a symbol of wealth, power and spiritual guidance for Eastern Orthodox Christians. In 1453 it remained as the vestige of ancient Byzantium, not yet conquered by the Turks. Present day it is better know by its Turkish name of Istanbul. . September 13, 533. Strategic Context. Emperor Justinian of the Eastern Byzantine Empire is trying to reconquer the Western Byzantine Empire and restore the old glory of the Roman Empire. Many lands remain to be conquered when the usurped Vandal King Hilderic appeals for aid against his cousin, Gelimer, who is much less friendly to Byzantine interests. Justinian sends his best general, Belisarius, to Africa with an expeditionary force to defeat the Vandals and reestablish control over Carthage, North Africa, and the Mediterranean. Belisarius lands his army in North Africa near Triplolitana and begins the 10-12 day march on Carthage. Knowing Carthage’s fortifications to be in decay, Gelimer plans to ambush the Byzantine army.. . August 15-20, 636. Strategic Context.

A decade later, Khald ibn al-Walid leads a dramatic invasion of these newly conquered lands. He destroys a Byzantine army and captures Damascus in 635 before another army can be hastily assembled, led by Vahan, to chase the Rashiduns out. Now the Rashiduns make their stand south of Damascus with their backs to the Arabian Desert; they are united by purpose and know that this could be their final chance to break out of the desert.. [?], 530. Strategic Context. After a long period of peace, the Byzantine and Sassanid Empires fight a war 502-506, followed by a twenty-year truce. In 526, tensions rise between the two Empires and fighting begins to escalate. After a successful Byzantine raid into Sassanid Armenia in 529, Firuz leads a Sassanid army into Mesopotamia to capture the Byzantine fortress of Daras. Belisarius constructs a wide ditch and leads the Byzantine defenders outside Daras’ walls to do battle. He then sends a message to Firuz suggesting a short armistice to hold negotiations. Firuz interprets these two actions as a sign of weakness and resolves to attack.. Essential Question. :. How did Slavic, Viking, and Byzantine influences impact the development of Russia?.
