Fall of Rome = Rise of Byzantine Diocletian divided the Roman Empire into East and West to better fight off Germanic tribe invaders. West (Rome) fell - constant attacks from Germanic tribes. East (Byzantine) – fought off the attacks and grew and gained power.

Creation of Byzantine Empire 476 marks fall of Roman Empire as Germanic tribes take over. (West) Byzantine Empire is thriving. Emperor Constantine relocates the capitol to Byzantium and renames it Constantinople. This is a good location because it is… protected geographically from invasions. Good port access for trading.

You can see where Constantinople is located and why it was protected from invasions and a good port for trading.

Justinian Emperor from Focused on keeping empire united. Spent lots of money to build buildings and encourage the Empire to grow. Raised taxes to pay for his pursuits and left the empire bankrupt Wife Theodora served as his counselor. She kept peace between the Orthodox Church (what Justinian supported) and it’s opposition (those who did not like the church). Her death led to invasions because opposition gave in and they did not like Justinian.

Byzantine Society Emperor served as a priest-king…Power! Emperors were above law they made the laws. Hierarchical - dominated by the aristocracy. Laws applied to everyone but punishments depended on your status in society. (death penalty vs. fine) Those born into a family of nobility were often guaranteed a good position in society. Women viewed as a temptation and subject to men’s control. Few were educated, they were not allowed to leave home without servants to accompany them, their only role was to raise children.

Role of the Church in Byzantine Empire Church was used to centralize the Empire. (Unite all people under the same beliefs) “One God, One Empire, One Religion”. Uniformity. Emperor was very tied to religion. This meant that the church and government ruled as one (theocracy). Iconoclast Movement began in order to end the worship of icons (pictures, statues, were not located in churches because that was worshiping icons) Not all Catholics agreed with this practice. It led to the… Great Schism : Division between Orthodox Church (East) and Catholic Church (West) lead to the creation of 2 separate groups.

Byzantine Empire Allows the Church to gain a lot of power in society and gives them control over citizens lives. Survive until conquered by Ottoman Turks in 1453.
