How Did the Second Rome Fall?

Rome fell in 476… but the Second Rome survived for almost 1,000 more years.

Constantinople—the capital of the Byzantine Empire—was the richest and most fortified city in Europe.

Using enormous cannons, the Ottomans blasted through the legendary Theodosian Walls.

After weeks of siege, Ottoman forces stormed the city. Emperor Constantine XI died defending it.

Constantinople fell—and the Byzantine Empire vanished overnight.

The Second Rome was gone… and a new empire had just begun.
