Then the Roman Empire still exists. Justinian considers himself a Roman emperor, and most citizens consider himself a Roman. He took Rome back to the Empire and regained a lot of lost regions. Justinian, from Syria to Spain, showed the empire once. But this is because it weakens and makes the Byzantine's power too tense. He did this:
After Justa's supreme commander, Bellasarius, who defeated the Persian word Persian, he won peace in the east and was sent to North Africa to invade the kingdom of the destroyer. Vandal King Gelimur was decisively defeated at Ad Decium (ten mile from Carthage) and then beaten again outside of Carthage. The period of Byzantine rule in North Africa was the longest, but during the period of Justin governance there were several uprisings due to insufficient wages. Next is the Ostro Gothic Kingdom of Italy. Bellasarius originally had only 7,500 people but due to his talent and some reinforcement he was able to conquer all the Italians to Ravenna. Then the Persians invaded the Byzantine Empire. Bellasarius rejected the invitation to peace, captured Ravenna by breaking his promise to the garrison. As the plague of Justinian was furious, the Persians were forced to retreat and the battle stopped. A quarter of the population of Constantinople died and even Justinian suffered a plague, but he survived. Later, the Italians will be occupied by barbarians and Bellasarius will retire. He was later asked to repel Burger's attackers who are too close to the capital. This time, Justinian sent 20,000 men to occupy Italy under Narses, but he also had men to take them to southern Spain. Justinian passed away in the Roman Empire and regained its former glory. However, after his death his successor lacked the ability to lack general such as Bellasarius. Just a few decades later, Hispaspainia will fall to Italy. Regarding the area, this is the greatest extent Byzantine has achieved, and they will decline after 500 years.
Justinian did not want to conquer this Byzantine Empire. He is the emperor of this empire, he does not want to conquer his land. Justinian wants to conquer the lost land of the Western Roman Empire. This is because the so-called "Byzantine" empire is the continuation of the Roman Empire. The Byzantine Empire is a word made by historians to show the decline of the Eastern Roman Empire. Imperial parties do not even know the word Byzantium, they insist that their empire is the Roman Empire.
Analysis of the scope of the Byzantine Empire: a) the continuation of the old Roman Empire and B) the way to leave. In other words, which parts of the ancient Roman Empire stationed in Italy allowed the Byzantine Empire to survive? What part of the Byzantine Empire is different from the West (Italy) Roman Empire? Same thing: Byzantine leaders believe that their empire is only the continuation of the old Western Roman Empire. It is one. The beginning of the Byzantine Empire was when the Roman Emperor Constantine established the new capital Constantinople in the old Greek city Byzantium in 330 B.C. At the end of the century, the Roman Empire was officially (written and legally) divided into two halves - east and west. The Byzantine Empire is half east. C. The western half headquartered in Italy collapsed in the 5th century. d. Eastern Half (Byzantine Empire) is as hot as a burn for 1000 years. I led this resurrection. Bay I. II. III. IV
