Detailed explanation-1: -In the 500s c.e., the Byzantine Empire extended from Spain in the west to India in the east. Constantinople was a thriving city because of its location on a peninsula between the Black Sea and the Sea of Marmara, which connects to the Aegean Sea. As time passed, the Byzantine Empire became less Roman and more English.
Detailed explanation-2: -They talk about the Western Empire – the part ruled by Italy which fell in 476. They ignore the Eastern Empire, what we call Byzantium, which was based in Constantinople. Byzantium lasted much longer than Rome. It survived until 1453.
Detailed explanation-3: -The Byzantine Empire finally fell in 1453, after an Ottoman army stormed Constantinople during the reign of Constantine XI.
