[@andreasb.1606]

I like the introduction, too often is the Roman heritage of the Empire rejected or ignored, both by Greeks and Westerners, for their own propaganda purposes. The (Eastern) Roman Empire of this period was a wonderful mixture of Greek and Roman cultures, politics, way of life that led to the development of one of the most interesting civilizations of the Middle Ages/late Antiquity. We Greeks should be proud to have been the true last standing parts and peoples of this (about) 2000 years old Empire, instead of rejecting it.

The Byzantine Empire lost slowly Sardinia after the Arab conquest of Sicily which made communication between Cagliari and Constantinople impossible. The Byzantine governors became autonomous and gave rise to the "Giudicati", independent principalities that lasted until the 13th century when they were conquered by the maritime Republic of Pisa. The last Byzantine possession in Italy was Bari, conquered by the Normans in 1071.

Belisarius : "Eastern" roman empire? I reconquered Italy! Am I a joke to you?

[@autobot-jedi-iron-man3166]

France actually holds the rights to the throne and crown of the Roman/Byzantine empire, since it was sold to the French king in 1496 by Andreas Palaiologos, successor of Konstantinos palaiologos, the last Byzantine emperor.

[@robertmccance7605]

France doesn't have a monarchy anymore so it's gone from existence.

The only reason why the arabs had it easy was because eastern rome was weakened by constant invasions and plagues.

[@zersky495]

They just got out of a slugfest with Sassanians too, with the latter being completely conquered

While the classical Roman Empire was a conqueror, its medieval form was a survivor.

[@asg2902]

Justinian is the greatest Leader in Eastern Roman History. He managed to Conquer The Vandals, (Northern Libya, Tunisia, Northeast Algeria) Italy from the Ostrogoths, But sadly, everybody dies. Thats when it all went downhill. :P

[@andreasb.1606]

I am not saying this in any negative tone, but his conquests cost the empire vast resources and seriously reduced Roman presence in the East, which led to deadly, bloody and indecisive wars with the Persians and the eventual conquest of the Middle East (both Roman and Persian) by first the Arab tribes and later Turkish tribes. While his conquests can be considered great, in the long run, in my opinion they proved more of a costly disadvantage for the territorial integrity of the Empire.

[@rockstar450]

@@andreasb.1606 the view that Justinian bankrupted the empire is falling heavily out of favour. The plague is what crippled the trade and military which could have easily held the conquest up. There are also massive climactic shifts which created famine. Justinian’s civil administration shows he wasn’t just a conquerer. I used to question the reconquest but read into the aforementioned reasons. The Italian holdings kept them connected and trading with the west. It was the Arabs. Plain and simple, and the conquest of Persia shows nobody saw that coming/
