The most important is that Byzantium will live forever in our hearts. Greetings from Romania brothers ans sisters, and the next year to Constantinople.
This is one EMPIRE that should have NEVER fallen and its fall the greatest tragedy for the WEST as well for the EAST and for ENTIRE CHRISTENTUM. As Catholic I know that the sack of Constantinople in April 1204 during the 4th crusade from west has weakened the great city of Constantinople and greatly contributed to its fall to enemies, which should made entire west blush in shame...
The sacking of Constantinople in 1204 by 'the west' was the sole reason for its eventual fall by the Turks. It lost all its treasures and it was not possible to recover.
@@user-tg3tj2nq6v that is not true. i have researched into it for many years. the palace intrigue of Constantinople allowed regicide. the murder of a monarch. in the Catholic West, a consecrated Catholic King cannot be murdered. in Constantinople this lead to aspiring monarchs to call external powers to come in and murder the current monarch. this is what happened when the 3rd set of crusaders were called to Constantinople. very sad. but that is what happened. i am from Asia. So i am not a Western / Eastern white christian. based on historical records this is what happened. if regicide was not allowed in Constantinople, they would have stood strong.
@pioamalraj9791 That’s the whole problem with nationalism at such a extreme it almost is a form of idol worship and as a result facts get left out of history.
This Hymn, called Standing Hymn, was based on the prelude of a previous Orthodox Christian Hymn dedicated to the Virgin Mary. In the year 626 AD, while Byzantine Emperor Heraclius (not Justinian) was leading a campaign of the Byzantine army against the Persians, Constantinople was suddenly besieged by the Avars, who were people of the steppes. Aware of the absence of the army, the Avars rejected any proposal for a truce and on August 6 captured the Byzantine church Lady of Vlacherna, dedicated to Virgin Mary. On the night of August 7-8, the Avars were preparing for the final attack against Constantinople, including from the sea, from the side of the Golden Horn where the city’s defenses were weakest. The entrance to the Golden Horn was protected from enemy ships with a huge chain that was lowered to allow friendly ships to go through, so an attack from the sea was not considered probable and the city’s walls were not as strong on this side. The Avars used a very large fleet of canoes to pass under the Golden Horn chain, in order to attack Constantinople from its weakest side. Byzantine Patriarch Sergius was going around the walls of the city, holding the icon of Virgin Mary of Vlacherna and encouraged the few defenders to resist. In the evening, the people of Constantinople gathered in the church of Agia Sophia and prayed to Virgin Mary for the salvation of the city. That night, a terrible tornado destroyed the Avar’s canoe fleet, while a counterattack by the defenders caused huge losses to them. The storm was attributed to divine intervention by both the Byzantines and the Avars, who were forced to break the siege and withdraw back to their lands. On August 8, Constantinople was saved from the greatest threat in its history. The people, wanting to celebrate their salvation, which they attributed to the intervention of the Virgin Mary, gathered at the Church of Lady of Vlacherna. Then, according to tradition, the crowd standing sang in gratitude this Hymn, (a variation of the original) that became known "Akathistos Hymnos" (Standing Hymn) to the Virgin Mary, attributing the victory nd the salvation of Constantinople to her, calling her "the champion general". To this day, Virgin Mary is considered to be the patron of the Hellenic Armed Forces.
That is why they trusted the same stupid symbols to save the city from the Ottoman siege but that time no tornado or anything like that happened. Believing in nonsense to save a beautiful city from the attackers will never help. No religion, no superstition but only will of the people combined with scientific methods and well-organized defense (plus equipment) could save it.
@@TheTimeDetective42 The mainstream view is that it was the adaptation of an older hymn by Romanus the melody creator, a famous hymn writer of the period and that it was written that night. Some say that it must have been an older hymn, since it would be difficult to write the hymn within hours. IIMAO, converting the words of an existing hymn to fit the situation should not have been a problem for an experienced hymn writer and this has been done many times in recent times, especially with Greek WW2 songs, that converted, within hours top song hits of the time, to fit the occasion by making fun of the Italians and Mussolini, based on the original music. As for the crowd, they didn't have to know the hymn before hand, all they had to do is repeat what the priests were singing, after all it is a very short hymn by Orthodox standards.

Not Byzantium, but rather the Christian Roman Empire (Orthodox), which had Constantinople as its capital, as opposed to the pagan Roman Empire, which had Rome as its capital.
And then when Russia tried to liberate the Balkan and make Istanbul Constantinople again in the 19th century, England and France intervened to help the Turks...

Roma! Greek is just a language and a culture not a nationality. Those who speak Greek are the remnants of the Roman Empire because the Romans were Aegean Greek speakers. They came from Troy and returned to their origins around 350AD. The Latins are also Greek speakers from 1600BC, but their Lacedaemonian Greek was fixed by the alphabet brought to Italy by the Colonist Latinos (youngest son of Odysseus of Ithaca) in around 1200BC.

It is the original language of the Holy Bible cause the majority of people in the ancient Western world chose to speak it cause of its brilliance. So, in order to spread the word of God, they chose the most common spoken language of the era. Sadly, lots of religious institutions in our days forget the purpose of the religious scripts. And they insist to preach it in ancient long forgotten languages, which not a lot of people can speak or understand anymore. So the word of God. Is not truly spread to the world anymore.

Firstly, Justinian I, the emperor shown in the video, was the Eastern Roman emperor from 527 to 565 but the Akathist Hymn (called in the title "national anthem") was created on 626 AD. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akathist#History Secondly, The Byzantine Empire (called itself Roman Empire) did not have a national anthem in the modern sense of the term, same as all the old empires. National anthems are invented the last 200-300 years. The Akathist Hymn is a religious hymn, used in various occasions to thank and honour Mother of Jesus of saving the empire from its enemies.
Since the empire was Greek Orthodox Christian this chant was used every single day in Churches and public events, a chant everyone in the empire knew. So Catholic and Orthodox chants are the inspiration of modern national anthems cause unify the entire nation.

Moi, aussi, je l'aimerais, ami. Le mot Anatolie, qui est devenu aujourd'hui synonyme de Turquie, est un mot grec qui veut dire l'Est, c'est-à-dire la Grèce d'Asie, la Grèce à l'est de l'Hellade.

The Annunciation is one of my favorite feasts in the Church because I get a reason to push singing this Kontakion at church.

@@antoniofarinaccio541 What are you some kind of Solipsist? What proof do you have that it is all an illusion? That's ridiculous! Plenty of things exist without me making them, without us making them. We certainly have common experiences even if we may perceive them in a slightly different way. There is objective reality independent of our perceptions. Scientific evidence, empirical observations, and the consensus of multiple observers confirm the existence of an external reality that exists regardless of individuals' interpretations. You are ignoring the vast body of empirical evidence supporting the existence of the physical world. Scientific discoveries, technological advancements, and the predictability of natural phenomena all attest to the reality of the external world. That cannot all be an illusion, because we can prove it isn't. With regard to taking action In the realm of action and decision-making, relying solely on subjective interpretations of reality without acknowledging objective facts can lead to impractical or harmful outcomes. As for taking action: Those who take action and make decisions, relying on their subjective interpretations of reality without considering objective facts can lead to massive f*ck-ups! Your argument is self-defeating, because it denies the existence of any other minds or external realities, rendering communication, cooperation, and shared experiences meaningless, but that is not the case. Your assertion that reality is an illusion and that people can create their own "truths" undermines ethical principles, like the principle of moral accountability. Without objective reality there can be no society and without society the individual human is doomed. So who is the cynic? Seems like a case of the pot calling the kettle black to me. It is equally important not to go of the deep end in the other direction. This idea that we can just all believe in a sky god and sing kumbaya without any empirical evidence of that sky-god's existence is equally ridiculous. There is no good evidence for god and only good evidence against him, considering that all the claims of Genesis about life, the earth and the universe have been shown to be incorrect and fallacious at best.
All these years I've known this hymn from our Eastern Orthodox Divine Services but I never knew that it was the National Anthem of the Byzantine Empire!
There was no such a thing as "national anthem of Byzantium" . First of all there was no Byzantium or byzantines. They was Romans and Roman Empire. 2) Romans ware no a nation in the modern sense.
I asked a friend if he often thought about the restoration of Byzantium and he didn't even understand the question. Needless to say, we're no longer friends.

It's a shame what happened to the Byzantine Empire. Moral decadence, clerical and nobility corruption, Caesaro-Papism helped a lot in the fall of this great Empire. Unfortunately, not every Empire and glory lasts forever. The same can be seen in post-medieval Europe with the decline of the Renaissance(What was reborn? Huh.. paganism) , which made Western Christians more tepid, tolerant of evil, weak, seeking their own redemption on Earth (excellent pagan life), absolutism, decadence of the nobility and royal courts (it was at this time that the figure of Fat Kings, Gluttons, Adulterers, etc. emerged). Paganism destroys everything wherever it goes. Beautiful song, and beautiful film. :)

A wonderful piece of music. Perhaps as people have commented, not a national anthem in the accepted sense of the word but very evocative of Byzantium and Orthodoxy.
Byzantines were proud. Byzantines were rich. Their walls stood proud upon the Bosphorus. But there's no wall high enough to stop hunger (the wave of Mehmet the Great), nor to impede treason (sack of 1421 by the Crusade). They stood. They fell. They're a reminder that no matter how rich, no matter how powerful, the days of a civilization are always numbered. Remember the last cry of the last Emperor of Bizancio, as he ran with his horse against the enemy... and fell, to nevermore gaze upon his magnificent city.
Mehmet the Great was on the verge of being strangled to death by his men when a breach - likely a treason ; an open portal was found - was made in the defenses. Never heard of a sack of 1421. The Sack of Constantinople was 1204 by the Crusaders. The victory of Mehmet was over a hollow of a city. Mehmet allowed the Jews of Spain to settle in the city to help fill it up and restart commerce. Gunpowder would have eventually ruined the defenses of Constantinople. And the Hungarian's cannon did a great deal of damage. But Mehmet's victory was not overwhelming at all, especially considering that his forces were tens of thousands, and the defenders were perhaps 10,000 total.

@@manolomauriz2182Papal primacy (Catholic doctrine) is closer to Jesus because he founded it. Orthodox are really Catholics that have separated. In Catholic terms:"Separted Brethren"
@@DianadeGonzalez "Papal Primacy" 🤣 you are so ignorant. Then why the Creed was written in NICEA and not in Rome City? Why the Creed was written in GREEK not latin? and there is not "Papal Primacy" in the Creed. Italians Popes has not right to change Christian Traditions and introduce Roman Pagan traditions. Christ never founded Red Hats , White Collars, Wafers instead Bread for communion and all your ROMAN PAGAN TRADITIONS were never allowed by Christ neighter by Saint Peter cause he was also Hebrew not Roman.
@@DianadeGonzalez It is not Catholic at All. Do you know Papal Infallibity was proclamed a Dogma until 1870 by Pope Pius IX Never before. cause Catholic is a Greek word "καθολικός" and it means Universal not Italian, 217 of 266 Popes has being Italians and that's not CATHOLIC at all. 5 Patriach stayed loyal yo Orthodoxy and it was Latin Patriarch the one whom separated from the Church Jesus founded. You need to Read more and educate yourself.
@@manolomauriz2182 Sure brother, The most important for me is the Holy Communion and Traditional Mass. The Communion in the Orthodox Church is celebrated only with Holy Bread and Wine just as Jesus did 🥖🍷 never with waffers cause he never used waffers.

Never Red Hats as Roman Soliders, The Holy Print , Greek and Aramaic as Holy languages instead of latin, Trust me, everything is closser to Christ in Orthodox Church , before i felt almost near to Christ but now i feel 100% in Christ Home ☦️💒📖❤️🔥

Anybody ever noticed this was the movie Theodora slave empress made-in-italy back around 1954.. very nice very nice reenactment of what happened with Justinian and Theodora.. the colors of very very vivid in this restored movie.. Has Hollywood ever made a full-featured movie on aspect the Byzantine empire? Did they even make anything in the fall of Constantinople? The longest-running empire in human history. Don't expect much from Hollywood maybe another Gladiator movie or another holocaust of the Jewish people movie. Come to think of it has Hollywood even considered a movie of The Armenian genocide /Holocaust. Not even that was ever considered.. I heard a while ago that Turkish government would retaliate one way or another as far back after WW1 If Hollywood would ever have anything negative against Turkqie. We know that China has also a long-standing stranglehold on Hollywood also for the same reason. Neither of them like bad press
Nope, Hollywood has never made a film about Justinian and Theodora. They'll make a million about Cleopatra, but not Theodora, who I think is FAR more interesting.

The sacking of Constantinople in 1204 by 'the west' was the sole reason for its eventual fall by the Turks. It lost all its treasures and it was not possible to recover.
unfortunate but TRUE statement@@user-tg3tj2nq6v
@@user-tg3tj2nq6v that is not true. i have researched into it for many years. the palace intrigue of Constantinople allowed regicide. the murder of a monarch. in the Catholic West, a consecrated Catholic King cannot be murdered. in Constantinople this lead to aspiring monarchs to call external powers to come in and murder the current monarch. this is what happened when the 3rd set of crusaders were called to Constantinople. very sad. but that is what happened.
i am from Asia. So i am not a Western / Eastern white christian. based on historical records this is what happened. if regicide was not allowed in Constantinople, they would have stood strong.
@pioamalraj9791 That’s the whole problem with nationalism at such a extreme it almost is a form of idol worship and as a result facts get left out of history.
@@pioamalraj9791 I honestly do not understand what you are trying to say.
This Hymn, called Standing Hymn, was based on the prelude of a previous Orthodox Christian Hymn dedicated to the Virgin Mary.
In the year 626 AD, while Byzantine Emperor Heraclius (not Justinian) was leading a campaign of the Byzantine army against the Persians, Constantinople was suddenly besieged by the Avars, who were people of the steppes.
Aware of the absence of the army, the Avars rejected any proposal for a truce and on August 6 captured the Byzantine church Lady of Vlacherna, dedicated to Virgin Mary.
On the night of August 7-8, the Avars were preparing for the final attack against Constantinople, including from the sea, from the side of the Golden Horn where the city’s defenses were weakest.
The entrance to the Golden Horn was protected from enemy ships with a huge chain that was lowered to allow friendly ships to go through, so an attack from the sea was not considered probable and the city’s walls were not as strong on this side.
The Avars used a very large fleet of canoes to pass under the Golden Horn chain, in order to attack Constantinople from its weakest side.
Byzantine Patriarch Sergius was going around the walls of the city, holding the icon of Virgin Mary of Vlacherna and encouraged the few defenders to resist.
In the evening, the people of Constantinople gathered in the church of Agia Sophia and prayed to Virgin Mary for the salvation of the city.
That night, a terrible tornado destroyed the Avar’s canoe fleet, while a counterattack by the defenders caused huge losses to them.
The storm was attributed to divine intervention by both the Byzantines and the Avars, who were forced to break the siege and withdraw back to their lands.
On August 8, Constantinople was saved from the greatest threat in its history.
The people, wanting to celebrate their salvation, which they attributed to the intervention of the Virgin Mary, gathered at the Church of Lady of Vlacherna. Then, according to tradition, the crowd standing sang in gratitude this Hymn, (a variation of the original) that became known "Akathistos Hymnos" (Standing Hymn) to the Virgin Mary, attributing the victory nd the salvation of Constantinople to her, calling her "the champion general".
To this day, Virgin Mary is considered to be the patron of the Hellenic Armed Forces.
Thanks for sharing that. TY randomly recommended this, and it was cool to read some background.
That is why they trusted the same stupid symbols to save the city from the Ottoman siege but that time no tornado or anything like that happened. Believing in nonsense to save a beautiful city from the attackers will never help. No religion, no superstition but only will of the people combined with scientific methods and well-organized defense (plus equipment) could save it.
If the crowd knows the hymn it's clearly older. Thanks for a nice history lesson!
@@TheTimeDetective42 The mainstream view is that it was the adaptation of an older hymn by Romanus the melody creator, a famous hymn writer of the period and that it was written that night.
Some say that it must have been an older hymn, since it would be difficult to write the hymn within hours.
IIMAO, converting the words of an existing hymn to fit the situation should not have been a problem for an experienced hymn writer and this has been done many times in recent times, especially with Greek WW2 songs, that converted, within hours top song hits of the time, to fit the occasion by making fun of the Italians and Mussolini, based on the original music.
As for the crowd, they didn't have to know the hymn before hand, all they had to do is repeat what the priests were singing, after all it is a very short hymn by Orthodox standards.
Thanks for the clarifications! Very interesting!

Roma! Greek is just a language and a culture not a nationality. Those who speak Greek are the remnants of the Roman Empire because the Romans were Aegean Greek speakers. They came from Troy and returned to their origins around 350AD. The Latins are also Greek speakers from 1600BC, but their Lacedaemonian Greek was fixed by the alphabet brought to Italy by the Colonist Latinos (youngest son of Odysseus of Ithaca) in around 1200BC.

I do agree , i wish more people speak language nowdays since it is the language of biggest men in history and the original language of the holy bible.
It is the original language of the Holy Bible cause the majority of people in the ancient Western world chose to speak it cause of its brilliance. So, in order to spread the word of God, they chose the most common spoken language of the era. Sadly, lots of religious institutions in our days forget the purpose of the religious scripts. And they insist to preach it in ancient long forgotten languages, which not a lot of people can speak or understand anymore. So the word of God. Is not truly spread to the world anymore.

Firstly, Justinian I, the emperor shown in the video, was the Eastern Roman emperor from 527 to 565 but the Akathist Hymn (called in the title "national anthem") was created on 626 AD. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akathist#History
Secondly, The Byzantine Empire (called itself Roman Empire) did not have a national anthem in the modern sense of the term, same as all the old empires. National anthems are invented the last 200-300 years. The Akathist Hymn is a religious hymn, used in various occasions to thank and honour Mother of Jesus of saving the empire from its enemies.
Since the empire was Greek Orthodox Christian this chant was used every single day in Churches and public events, a chant everyone in the empire knew. So Catholic and Orthodox chants are the inspiration of modern national anthems cause unify the entire nation.

@@yanniskarageorgiou6947 I am not Greek and I did not mean to retake it by killing anyone. We shall wage a war of ideas and in that war, we are already winning. Greek civilization goes beyond Greek people. It is not a statement of ethno nationalism or race nationalism or religious nationalism - Greek is a call to a universalism, the belief that some values are universal, those of justice, and decency and respect, and reason, and love, rather than oppression, and brutality and exploitation and slavery.

@dconnor3194 Nothing exist unless you make it. It is all a illusion. That is all we have, there for, "I think, I exist." Descartes. Let it be a lesson to you. The world belong to those that take action not to cynics.
@@antoniofarinaccio541 What are you some kind of Solipsist? What proof do you have that it is all an illusion? That's ridiculous! Plenty of things exist without me making them, without us making them. We certainly have common experiences even if we may perceive them in a slightly different way. There is objective reality independent of our perceptions. Scientific evidence, empirical observations, and the consensus of multiple observers confirm the existence of an external reality that exists regardless of individuals' interpretations. You are ignoring the vast body of empirical evidence supporting the existence of the physical world. Scientific discoveries, technological advancements, and the predictability of natural phenomena all attest to the reality of the external world. That cannot all be an illusion, because we can prove it isn't. With regard to taking action In the realm of action and decision-making, relying solely on subjective interpretations of reality without acknowledging objective facts can lead to impractical or harmful outcomes. As for taking action: Those who take action and make decisions, relying on their subjective interpretations of reality without considering objective facts can lead to massive f*ck-ups! Your argument is self-defeating, because it denies the existence of any other minds or external realities, rendering communication, cooperation, and shared experiences meaningless, but that is not the case. Your assertion that reality is an illusion and that people can create their own "truths" undermines ethical principles, like the principle of moral accountability. Without objective reality there can be no society and without society the individual human is doomed. So who is the cynic? Seems like a case of the pot calling the kettle black to me.
It is equally important not to go of the deep end in the other direction. This idea that we can just all believe in a sky god and sing kumbaya without any empirical evidence of that sky-god's existence is equally ridiculous. There is no good evidence for god and only good evidence against him, considering that all the claims of Genesis about life, the earth and the universe have been shown to be incorrect and fallacious at best.

Not the national anthem, just a church hymn that sings about the victory of Virgin Mary.
There was no such a thing as "national anthem of Byzantium" . First of all there was no Byzantium or byzantines. They was Romans and Roman Empire. 2) Romans ware no a nation in the modern sense.

Thank you very much on this SUNDAY the Ninth after Pentecost
It's a shame what happened to the Byzantine Empire. Moral decadence, clerical and nobility corruption, Caesaro-Papism helped a lot in the fall of this great Empire. Unfortunately, not every Empire and glory lasts forever. The same can be seen in post-medieval Europe with the decline of the Renaissance(What was reborn? Huh.. paganism) , which made Western Christians more tepid, tolerant of evil, weak, seeking their own redemption on Earth (excellent pagan life), absolutism, decadence of the nobility and royal courts (it was at this time that the figure of Fat Kings, Gluttons, Adulterers, etc. emerged). Paganism destroys everything wherever it goes.
Beautiful song, and beautiful film. :)

Greetings and much respect from Portugal!
I am very interested in the Eatern Roman Empire!
A wonderful piece of music. Perhaps as people have commented, not a national anthem in the accepted sense of the word but very evocative of Byzantium and Orthodoxy.
Byzantines were proud. Byzantines were rich. Their walls stood proud upon the Bosphorus.
But there's no wall high enough to stop hunger (the wave of Mehmet the Great), nor to impede treason (sack of 1421 by the Crusade).
They stood. They fell. They're a reminder that no matter how rich, no matter how powerful, the days of a civilization are always numbered.
Remember the last cry of the last Emperor of Bizancio, as he ran with his horse against the enemy... and fell, to nevermore gaze upon his magnificent city.
Mehmet the Great was on the verge of being strangled to death by his men when a breach - likely a treason ; an open portal was found - was made in the defenses.
Never heard of a sack of 1421. The Sack of Constantinople was 1204 by the Crusaders. The victory of Mehmet was over a hollow of a city. Mehmet allowed the Jews of Spain to settle in the city to help fill it up and restart commerce.
Gunpowder would have eventually ruined the defenses of Constantinople. And the Hungarian's cannon did a great deal of damage. But Mehmet's victory was not overwhelming at all, especially considering that his forces were tens of thousands, and the defenders were perhaps 10,000 total.
Not Byzantium, but rather the Christian Roman Empire (Orthodox), which had Constantinople as its capital, as opposed to the pagan Roman Empire, which had Rome as its capital.

I'm a convert from Roman Catholic to Greek Orthodox Church, well not really a "convert" since we have the same faith but diferent traditions and for sure Orthodox Tradition is closer to Jesus, Holy Mary and the apostles daily life, that's why the first bible was written in Greek ☦️🇬🇷❤️🔥📖
I was considering possibly converting or switching from Roman Catholic to Greek Orthodoxy, do you believe it’s closer to Jesus? And what traditions or beliefs make it so?
@@manolomauriz2182Papal primacy (Catholic doctrine) is closer to Jesus because he founded it. Orthodox are really Catholics that have separated. In Catholic terms:"Separted Brethren"
@@DianadeGonzalez "Papal Primacy" 🤣 you are so ignorant. Then why the Creed was written in NICEA and not in Rome City? Why the Creed was written in GREEK not latin? and there is not "Papal Primacy" in the Creed. Italians Popes has not right to change Christian Traditions and introduce Roman Pagan traditions. Christ never founded Red Hats , White Collars, Wafers instead Bread for communion and all your ROMAN PAGAN TRADITIONS were never allowed by Christ neighter by Saint Peter cause he was also Hebrew not Roman.
@@DianadeGonzalez It is not Catholic at All. Do you know Papal Infallibity was proclamed a Dogma until 1870 by Pope Pius IX Never before. cause Catholic is a Greek word "καθολικός" and it means Universal not Italian, 217 of 266 Popes has being Italians and that's not CATHOLIC at all. 5 Patriach stayed loyal yo Orthodoxy and it was Latin Patriarch the one whom separated from the Church Jesus founded. You need to Read more and educate yourself.
@@manolomauriz2182 Sure brother, The most important for me is the Holy Communion and Traditional Mass. The Communion in the Orthodox Church is celebrated only with Holy Bread and Wine just as Jesus did 🥖🍷 never with waffers cause he never used waffers. The Beard and Clothes as Jesus and Apostles used to use. Never Red Hats as Roman Soliders, The Holy Print , Greek and Aramaic as Holy languages instead of latin, Trust me, everything is closser to Christ in Orthodox Church , before i felt almost near to Christ but now i feel 100% in Christ Home ☦️💒📖❤️🔥

Anybody ever noticed this was the movie Theodora slave empress made-in-italy back around 1954.. very nice very nice reenactment of what happened with Justinian and Theodora.. the colors of very very vivid in this restored movie.. Has Hollywood ever made a full-featured movie on aspect the Byzantine empire? Did they even make anything in the fall of Constantinople? The longest-running empire in human history. Don't expect much from Hollywood maybe another Gladiator movie or another holocaust of the Jewish people movie. Come to think of it has Hollywood even considered a movie of The Armenian genocide /Holocaust. Not even that was ever considered.. I heard a while ago that Turkish government would retaliate one way or another as far back after WW1 If Hollywood would ever have anything negative against Turkqie. We know that China has also a long-standing stranglehold on Hollywood also for the same reason. Neither of them like bad press
Nope, Hollywood has never made a film about Justinian and Theodora. They'll make a million about Cleopatra, but not Theodora, who I think is FAR more interesting.
