It’s not a legally valid claim to be the Roman successor state
They had a Roman princess. Big whup
The eastern empire get cucked by the Greeks after the 5th century.
I’m not talking legally, we all know they could never be Roman
Or Greek or Byzantine
@Snake if Russia was legitimately Rome’s mantle carrier that makes Finland the Roman Empire today and we ain’t ready for that perkeling conversation
Since who the emperors who didnt speak Latin or Greek
Lmao
Rome dies when the barbarians took it.
End of story.
They only took half
I prefer to go by the rule of:
>owns Constantinople, the previous capital *de iure*
>is Orthodox
>Is autocratic in governmental expression of power
Byzantines were just Greek pretending to be Romans.
Which means Putin is our hope
😂👌
And the Russian empire was nothing like Rome!
Being from the city of Rome stop being a requirement to be Roman around the time of Augustus
Eastern Roman Empire is Byzantium, which is just a name. Byzantium checks all of the boxes to be Roman
So yes, it’s Roman
The Russia thing was just ridiculous, Germany considered itself the HRE
Speaking of Orthodox
Byzantine is a later term came up with after the empire fall
Constantinople > Istanbadname
Modern historians stopped using the term
@Flavius Stilicho Modern historians don't know a shite.
Kinda wish Greece annexed Constantinople back in the 20’s
@yordanyordanov not again
That's why peopel are always rewriting histories.
cause truth is inconvenient.
Modern historians =/= state propaganda Yordan
@Snake They tried.
>Denies history
>BASED??
