Map gamers made me despise the Byzantine empire.
1453 best year. Kōnstantinoupolis? More like Konstantiniye
Seriously though, the Eastern Roman Empire is a part of history I kinda have a blind spot on, unfortunately. All I know is slavery disappeared from there by the 11th century for the most part.
