Byzantium

The Byzantine Empire was the Greek-speaking Roman state ruled from Constantinople, held by the Palaiologoi since 1261. In 1337 Andronikos III held little of Asia Minor: Nicaea and Nicomedia had fallen to the Ottomans.

The Ottomans took Gallipoli in 1354 and Adrianople in 1369. Timur's victory at Ankara in 1402 gave a respite. Mehmed II stormed Constantinople on 29 May 1453, ending the empire; the Morea fell in 1460 and the breakaway Empire of Trebizond in 1461.
