1. Istanbul, Turkey's historic city, is located at the eastern end of the Balkan Peninsula and the throat of the Black Sea. It is Turkey's largest city and port with a population of more than 12 million (2003). As the boundary between Eurasia and Europe, the Bosporus Strait passes through the city and divides the ancient city into two parts. Istanbul has become the only city in the world to cross Eurasia

Istanbul was founded in 660 BC, which was called Byzantine at that time. In 324 ad, the Roman Emperor Constantine moved his capital from Rome to Constantinople. In 395 ad, after the Roman Empire split, Constantinople became the capital of the Eastern Roman Empire (also known as Byzantine Empire). In 1453, Muhammad II, the Turkish Sultan, captured the city and destroyed the eastern Rome. It became the capital of the Ottoman Empire and was renamed Istanbul until Ankara, the capital of the Turkish Republic, was established in 1923.

3. Genghis Khan, borzijin's, name Tiemuzhen, temple name Yuan Taizu. He was born in the second year of Dading, Emperor Shizong of Jin Dynasty. Later, because his father was killed, his headquarters were scattered. Through continuous efforts, he united with zhamuhe and his father's andatuo Ouling to reorganize Qiyan, and finally developed slowly and finally unified Mongolia. At that time, northern China was under the rule of Nuzhen Jin Dynasty. The northern and southern steppes of the desert are independent of each other. Jin Dynasty carried out the policy of "divide and rule" and "rece the number of children" by killing and plundering[ 3-4]
in 1146, the leader of Mongolia, anbahaihan, was nailed to a wooden donkey by jinxizong in the name of "punishing rebellious laws". Mongolian tribal alliance has organized many revolts, and their ancestors have paid blood and lives for them. Born in such a social environment, Tiemuzhen naturally regards the victory over the state of Jin as his main goal in his life[ 4]
he always kept this hatred in mind. It was this kind of feud that led to the long-term war inside and outside the grassland. Tiemuzhen's mother, Mrs. horen, was born in Hongjila tribe, and married chilei, a beggar. In the autumn of 1161, the leader of the Mongolian Qiyan tribe also went hunting on the banks of the Gunan River and found he'erlun, who was passing by the Mongolian residence. With the help of several brothers and according to the tradition of "robbing relatives", he defeated the Mier beggar and robbed Madame heerlun, so he became yesugai's wife[ 4] [5]
the next year, it's time to capture Tiemuzhen Wuge, the leader of Tatar, alive. Just then, the first son was born. In order to celebrate the victory of the war, it is time to name his eldest son Tiemuzhen. When Tiemuzhen was 9 years old, his father was poisoned by zhalinbu, the son of Tiemuzhen Muge. After that, talihutai, a member of the taichiwu tribe, took the opportunity to stir up trouble and incite the Mongolians to abandon Tiemuzhen and her son, which made their family fall into the abyss of suffering from the position of tribal leader[ 4] [5-6]

battle of the thirteen wings
when tie Muzhen was 18 years old, the former enemy, Tuotuo Minister of mierqi, robbed his wife again. Tiemuzhen went to war with Mier Qibu and defeated Mier Qiren. Around 1184, Tiemuzhen was elected as the Khan of Mongolian qiyanbu[ 4] [7]
tie Muzhen's claim of Khan aroused the hatred of the ambitious zamuhe, who launched the "war of thirteen wings" against tie Muzhen in combination with 13 departments such as Tatar and taichiwu. This is the only defeat in more than 60 wars that tie Muzhen has experienced in his life[ 4]

unified tribe
with the growing strength of his own, Tiemuzhen began to seek revenge for the enemy who killed his father and ancestor. Defeat the Lord's begging department, kill its leader, and surrender Mu Hua Li and his son. Later, Mu Hua Li became the first general of tie Muzhen, and was granted the title of grand master king, leaving him to manage the Central Plains independently[ 4]
fearing the rise of Tiemuzhen, the nobles of the grassland elected Zamu as "gu'er Khan", that is, the sweat of the masses, and vowed to be the enemy of Tiemuzhen. They formed 12 allied forces and launched the battle of kuota against Tiemuzhen and keliebu. The mob led by zamuhe couldn't withstand the fierce attack of Tiemuzhen King Khan's allied forces. It collapsed in less than a day, and zamuhe surrendered to King Khan. Later, Tiemuzhen attacked tata'er department, and its leader zhalinu committed suicide by taking poison. Another leader of tata'er department also surrendered. Tiemuzhen pursues taichiwu department, and is shot in the neck by taichiwu department in the command battle, and his life is in danger. The next morning, the taichiwu tribe surrendered to Tiemuzhen[ 4]
the collapse of the taichiwu tribe eradicated the huge obstacles for Tiemuzhen to further unify the Mongolian tribes, while several of its members, such as the archer zhe BIE and naya'a, became Tiemuzhen's right-hand assistants to conquer the world. Later, they were the ones who went to the Western Liao Dynasty to destroy Qu chulv. In the first western expedition, they played the most special role. They were the ones who chased the Sultan of mahamo, captured the Empress Dowager Durham alive, and defeated the Archke of roskiev.

4. Byzantium was an ancient Greek city, founded by Ionians who had the same origin with Athens
Byzantium later joined the Macedonian empire as an ally, but its status has not been high. After the battle of pidna, the Macedonian empire collapsed, and Rome took over the whole Greece and Macedonian. With the establishment of the Roman Empire, 300 years of Roman peace began< However, about the third century, Rome was seriously shaken by internal corruption and external barbarian invasion. Emperor dacrisian implemented the rule of four places, which partly solved the external crisis, but aggravated the internal division. In order to cope with the threat of barbarians from the Russian plain and the Sassanian empire in the East, he moved his capital from Rome, which had already declined, to the East, and Byzantium, which was his throat, was taken in his eyes
I remember in the book that he drew the boundary of the new city with chariots and horses, which shocked the ministers. But the new capital, the renamed and spectacular Constantinople, was established after all. However, the classical era has passed. In order to maintain the aesthetic characteristics of Rome, the city had to draw all kinds of art planes from all over the Empire for decoration
a few years after the establishment of the city, Constantine died. His three sons fought for the throne, but died one after another. The last emperor of the Constantine family was Julian, who believed in ancient polytheism. He was very successful, but he was murdered by Christians because of his paganism< In 476, the last emperor, Augustus Romulus, named after the man who founded Rome in 753 B.C., the capital of the Western Empire was not Rome, but Ravenna in the north He was deposed, but he was lucky to spend the rest of his life. Western Rome did not perish. In theory, it was just a vacancy in the throne. In fact, Charlemagne, who was crowned emperor hundreds of years later, inherited the throne of Western Rome< After 378 years of disastrous defeat, Eastern Rome accelerated its transition to feudalism. Later generations called it Byzantine Empire. In the Justinian era, Rome expanded for the last time and conquered Italy, Spain and North Africa again. However, with the rise of the Arab Muslim empire, Byzantine Empire declined rapidly. In the 11th century, the Roman Empire began to expand and conquered Italy, Spain and North Africa, The Empire actually controlled only the Balkans, Asia Minor and Syria
in 1204, the Venetians who wanted to seize the commercial control of the Mediterranean Sea surged, and the Crusaders captured Constantinople. I can see in the book that a French Knight wrote: "I have never seen such a magnificent city. Compared with it, all the cities in the West are just villages." Byzantium's wealth was plundered and its commercial status was lost. The Western lords established a feudal "Latin Empire". It was not until 1261 that the Byzantium royal family of Nicaea regained Constantinople. But the decline could not be reversed, especially after the Ottoman Empire entered Asia Minor
in 1453, Byzantium was conquered, Emperor Constantine 11 died on the wall, and Roman civilization was finally destroyed. However, the documents of Rome and Greece were largely preserved by the tolerant Arabs at that time, while the unique Byzantine culture was introced into Russia, and the Principality of Moscow, which expelled the Mongols, called itself "the third Rome".

5. In 1453, the Ottoman Empire conquered Constantinople
hope to adopt.

6. The western expedition ended with the death of the Mongolian Khan and went back to mourning. Later, Kublai Khan usurped the throne, and there was a flood of water in Mongolia. Later, the Mongols were defeated by the Arabs, and some of them formed an alliance with Byzantium and believed in the Orthodox Church, known as the Saviour of the Christian world.

7. The first Council of Constantinople was the second one held in 381 ad. Theodosius I held the first Constantinople Council in 381 to resolve the long-standing disputes of Christianity. A total of 186 bishops attended. The meeting continued to discuss the doctrines of the nature of the father and the son. As a result, the Council revised the content of the Nicene Creed, which was adopted unanimously. Further lay a trinity of theological doctrine. The meeting revised the Nicene Creed, declaring the belief that the Holy Spirit has divinity. He affirmed the superior position of the bishop of Constantinople. The canon compendium of the Bible is determined: 46 Old Testament and 27 New Testament.

The Black Sea and the Mediterranean

the city itself is located on a small hill, with the sea of Marmara in the south, the Golden Horn Bay in the north, the entrance to the Strait of Hellespont (Bosporus Strait) in the East and the Thrace plain in the West

the whole city is like a natural fortress, which is easy to defend but difficult to attack. Moreover, Byzantium was also the intersection of egnandia Avenue, an important military avenue of the Roman Empire, and the Military Highway in Asia Minor. It was the only way to Asia and the only way from the Black Sea to the Aegean Sea

in addition, Jinjiao Bay in the north of the city is a natural harbor with excellent conditions, with a total length of about 10 km, a main channel width of about 460 m, and many branch channels for ships to berth

since ancient times, it has been the place where merchant ships from all over the world gather and bring wealth to local residents, so it is called "sheep horn" (in Greek mythology, sheep horn is the symbol of harvest and wealth). In the future, Xin will be able to defend against attacks from all sides by relying on the topography of one side facing mountains and two sides facing water, and can also develop commerce by making use of convenient land and water transportation

City features

according to the statistics of Edward Gibbon, author of the fall of the Roman Empire, there are 2 theaters, 4 basilica (public assembly hall), 8 luxurious public baths, 153 private baths, 52 colonnades, 5 granaries, 8 elevated canals, 14 churches in Constantinople, 14 palaces and 4388 noble mansions. The design of the New Roman city is completely similar to that of Rome and is divided into 14 districts

Seven Hills like Rome can be found in the city, but there are only six visible hills. The seventh one is located on the gentle slope in the south of the city, which needs high imagination to distinguish. In the city, there is a small river flowing to the sea of Marmara, named the Ricos River, which is attached as the new Tiber River. Several elevated aquects bring live water from the Thrace plain, 30 kilometers away, to meet the daily needs of the city

Due to a series of special policies adopted by the Roman imperial government, Constantinople soon replaced the old Rome. Constantine himself approved the Roman nobles to move into the noble houses of the new capital free of charge, and the Senate of Constantinople also obtained the same legal status as the old Senate of Rome. These policies greatly promoted the development of Constantinople

the population of the city has increased rapidly, and within a few decades after its completion, the population of Constantinople has reached between 500000 and 1 million. Throughout medieval Europe, the number was second to none

9. It didn't happen in the same year. In 843, the Charlemagne Empire split, France, Italy and Germany took shape. In 1054, the Christian Church was divided into Roman centered Catholicism and Constantinople centered orthodox. The Japanese shogunate was founded in 1922.
