Focus: To what extent did Byzantium survive long after its death? Use your homework and notes from yesterday and today compose an “obituary” for the Byzantine Empire. You should include at least (2) specific historical facts/events for each phase of the Byzantine Empire’s “life”. You must discuss it’s “birth” (how it rose to power), its’ accomplishments (technology, economy and politics) and its’ “decline and death” (what led to its’ decline and what legacy it has left to other cultures).
