Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The Eastern Roman Empire was much stronger than the Western Roman Empire. The Eastern Empire’s capital, Constantinople, bustled with traders from Asia, Africa, and Europe. As a result, the Eastern Empire had more wealth. Also, the eastern cities were larger and better fortified.

Detailed explanation-2: -The eastern half of the Roman Empire proved less vulnerable to external attack, thanks in part to its geographic location. With Constantinople located on a strait, it was extremely difficult to breach the capital’s defenses; in addition, the eastern empire had a much smaller common frontier with Europe.
