Between Rome and the Ottoman Empire: The Byzantine Empire / Emrah Safa Gürkan - Historik 71
#history #religion #cooperation
In this episode of Historik, we will examine one of the most magnificent, but also one of the loneliest, empires. We will recount the thousand-year journey of this empire, whose very name was given by others, whose birth is unknown even though the time of its ascension to Jesus is known, and we will discuss the sharp transformations in both the Mediterranean world and the Christian universe, attempting to shed light on the dark ages.
We will explain how an empire rose and fell, how the relationship between religion and state was historically structured, how Antiquity gave way to the Middle Ages, and how religious debates that seem insignificant today occupied millions of people for hundreds of years. Don't miss it!
