Okay
So the Eastern Roman Empire is the Roman Empire right?
no
it was the split aftermath of the Roman empire
and it later became entirely separate from that title when it turned into the Byzantine empire later on
But
It was not referred to as the so called "Byzantine Empire"
And citizens referred to themselves as Romans
it's like saying abruzzians living in southern italy are italians
(italo-albanians)
That's their nationality
Roman isn't even an ethnicity
It was a nationality
It referred to any Roman citizen
thats just because it encompassed so many regions that there wasn't really any "ethnicity"
Exactly
Also Albanians in Italy are referred to as "Arbëreshë"
