Empresses of Constantinople

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. Byzantine Empire after Bury''s protest against that phrase.

Most historians continue to speak of it as Byzantine.
