By Alternate History Hub A History Teacher Reacts. Thanks For Watching Real History Of Byzantine Empire । अरतुगरुल सीरियल में दिखाई जाने वाली सल्तनत क. An idea I'm currently formulating sees the Byzantine Empire as a reformed sort of republic fighting in the first world war. They control Greece, Bulgaria and around the southern half of the Balkans as well as the southern half of Italy they presumably took from Spain at some point in the 18-19th century, citing historical claim to Italy in the process.

Let's say that the Gothic War is a lot shorter ITTL (say it lasts 'just' five years instead of almost twenty) so that, by the 550s, the Eastern Roman Empire's finances are in much better shape despite the plague. Because of this, they are considerably more successful in their invasion of...- Thread
