    The capital was moved to Constantinople because it was in a more strategic location. Militarily it had a natural sea barrier which prevented it from getting invaded on multiple occasions. And it was a better place economically and administratively in running the empire. In addition, Rome was still recognised as the spiritual capital of the Empire and remained significant until its fall.

    As a Spaniard I can give a little insight into this topic, although I'm in no way an historian.
    About "ALL" the gold: The mining methods during the time Spain controlled the American colonies were EXTREMELLY primitive compared to what we have now. I don't remember the number but there was some comparison that went something like "the equivalent of all the gold and silver that Spain took from the americas is mined in just 2 years nowadays". Its probably more or less time but it was something like that, just to give context to how slow and basic surface mining was at the time, without any of the advanced machinery of nowadays.
    Also it is true that the gold and silver was spent and left spain almost as soon as it got in, but inflation also plays a part, as Spain was bringing so much new silver to Europe that the value went down.
    Spanish coinage was so universal that they were found almost annywhere in the globe and were the de-facto global currency, to the point that USA used Spanish coinage for many decades after independence, and pegged the dollar value to the "Spanish dollar" for many years.

    The Romans have all the reasons to be confident. 2000 years of continuous ruling over a sizeable portion of the world can give to you that kind of confidence. And moving the capital to Constantinople was correct. Hence why the empire still lasted for centuries there while the western empire fell.

      @@connorgrimshaw5457 but the Byzantine empire is different than the Roman Republic turned Roman Empire. Different traditions, military and political structure. The Roman Empire is generally considered by most historians to have fallen in 476 AD when Odoacer sinks his sword into the throne of the Roman emperor and declares himself King of Italy. The Byzantines were a surviving offshoot of Rome but they were far from Roman in anything other than name only. Completely different culture, political influences, different societal norms. That would be like saying Alexander’s empire lasted 300+ years because the Seleucid Empire and ptolomeic kingdom lasted til 63 BC and 30 BC. In reality, Alexander’s empire was split up by 321 BC, 2 years after his death.

    3:02. A number of Roman writers understood very well the revolution of empires. An extract from Seneca, the Roman philosopher: “Ancient empires have fallen when in the very heyday of their power. The number cannot be reckoned of the kingdoms that have been overthrown by other kingdoms. God now makes it His special aim to exalt some and to overthrow others; nor does He let them gently down, but dashes them from their pinnacle, so that no remnant of them is left.” (Natural Questions. 3.8-9)

    I read a statistic that claimed that Spain mined from its colonies in 3 centuries almost the same amount of gold that nowadays Peru mines in a single year, so they didn't take all the gold from America. Most of that gold was spent on wars in central Europe (which was part of its empire) to fight Protestantism. Another great part of its gold was spent battling separatist revolutions in America and Asia, as well as fighting against the US in Cuba and the Philippines. The Royal Navy did little harm to the Spanish Armada, most of the Armada's ships were sunk by bad weather. It was most probably the other way round, a Spanish commander, Blas de Lezo, literally single-handly (he only had one arm, and also missed a leg and an eye) defeated a whole British fleet at Cartagena de Indias. The biggest threat to Spain from Britain was the British Freemasonry, which conspired with separatists to spark revolutions in the Spanish colonies (i.e. Simón Bolívar, the idol of the Marxist Southamerican dictators, was their useful idiot). The little gold that remained was lost in the Spanish 1936 Civil War when the Communist Revolutionist Government stole all the national reserves before retreating from the capital, Madrid. The commies gave all the gold to their sponsor, the Soviet Union, but they surely pocketed some of it themselves because they lived some pretty fancy lives in exile.

      The extent that the Byzantine Christian Empire was destroyed by the Islamic expansion is largely overlooked in the modern European view of history. The battle of Tours was in Northern France. That's how far the Moors advanced into Europe. Columbus was looking for alternate trade routes that bypassed the Arab stranglehold that they held on the existing trade routes.

    The capital of Rome was moved to Constantinople (Istanbul) since it was much wealthier at that time. If you look on the map it was the land bridge between Asia and Europe. Centuries before it was given to Marc Anthony to rule during the second triumvirate which included himself, Caesar Augustus who held Spain and Gaul, and Marcus Lepidus who held onto Northern Africa. All three collectively ruling over Italy/Rome. Augustus and Agrippa quickly dispatched Lepidus and took over control of his area. Leaving Marc Anthony in the East drinking and boning his life away with Cleopatra until they both died. Augustus ruling the entirety of the Roman Empire from there on.

      First of all, Rome was never the capital in the Western Roman Empire, the capital of West Rome was Ravenna, not Rome itself. Secondly, you say that West Rome was "catholic" and East Rome was "orthodox", when in reality there was no such thing as Catholic Christianity or Orthodox Christianity back when the Western Roman Empire actually existed. The great Schism happened over 500 years after Western Rome fell, both East Rome and West Rome followed the same Christianity before West Rome fell (Nicene/Chalcedonian). West Rome was never Catholic, and East Rome was not Orthodox when both Empires existed.

    I think one thing we tend to forget when referring to empires falling and how common it is in the grand scheme of things is that, the difference now than from the past is how connected the internet has made the world. Before the world might as well be run through those whose agenda it was to make conquering a point. Now, whether you are a conquerer or not, you know the agendas of every empire. People are beginning to think for themselves. This was not possible in the past. So the future is kind of in the air as far as who maintains power and for how long. We are living in a time unlike any other time in the past. The internet and this access to information changes everything.

Sustenance, income, employment, etc. They neither grasp nor care to discover the larger issues that face humanity as a whole. Those who will maintain power will be, just as they were in the past, those who understand and are willing to manipulate other people for their own advantage, whatever the cost may be to those whom they manipulate.

    I am studying this era now. Martin Luther and Erasmus had conversations that were very interesting.
    He's talking about the Damascus story and how Spain formed to be tolerant of three religions. There were Jews, Arabs and Christians living side by side. They were the big example to the world for a long time. They set a standard during the Italian Renaissance and when the printing press came all of Christendom got a bible book to read.
    Humanity became literate and were competing immediately about who was more literate. This is when man evolved big time and we don't explore this history enough. It was just as big of a jump into evolution as I can think of. Printing Press was bigger than the computer.
    The English Revolution and John Milton's "The Tenure of Kings and Magistrates" is the most fascinating historical event. That is the main force of my scholarship, John Milton. The Protestant Reformation is so important to understand before you know the English Revolution. England was all Catholic until Henry VIII dissolved the Monasteries. It was an administrative process that happened between 1536-1541. People should know Luther and Erasmus because we all became literate after this. That describes this time period in basic form. I loose myself for whole weekends doing this with resource materials at JSTOR.

    Spain could've Reconquista'd much earlier, like when Castile first started to regain territory like Córdoba 250 years beforehand.

      There was no Spain until the reconquista. Shows what you know. The Iberian peninsula was a patchwork of small Christian kingdoms and a few Islamic states.

They married, and that marriage gave them the resources to fulfill their vision of evicting the moors.

      Really? I don’t think so. The moors were kicked out because they had been kicked out of all of Europe centuries before, and Spain was one of the last places to have Jews still. The Italians called us “Marrani” or “Circunciso” (circumcision) for centuries, as they said that the Spanish blood was tainted with Jews and Mors blood. Even the northern countries used these terms, especially after the reformation.
      In the late XV century, there were around 360k Jews in Spain. Of this, about 70k we’re expulsed, the rest converted and accepted in the society. It was not a total expulsion like in England in the XIII century o in France in the XIV century.
      Regarding the Inquisition, there were Inquisitions all over Europe, the first one was in France against the Catars on the XIII century (1184). Why do we only know about the Spanish Inquisition? That, by the way, was the last one to be officially implemented in 1478? Plenty of historians have gone through the documentation of the Inquisitions of Spain; in total, they calculate about 2,500 to a maximum of 2,700 deaths penalties handed over by the Inquisition; this is about 7,6 per year on average (it lasted 352 years). Of this, almost half never were performed because the person already died or they were not in custody. You compare this with only the deaths to “witches” in Germany (around 25,000), and it pales in comparison.
      All this comes from what we refer to as the “Spanish Black Legend”.

Germany wasn't a country till 1871 so in the 1500s when he translated the Bible into German, they basically spoke nearly different languages in different parts of the first Empire (first Reich) so he has written his translation in a way that everyone from all parts of the Reich could understand it. So he created a nearly complete new language that has spread over the whole Reich and lead to that all over the German territory they spoke the same language (but of course with strong dialects, that's why Germany has such enormous different dialects that for sure sound for foreigns like a different language.)

    The amount of silver and gold the Spaniards took from the New World was enormous, it completely changed the economies of Europe and created the modern age. The industrial revolution could never had happened without the monetization and modernization of the European economies that occurred after the discovery of precious metals in the Americas. So powerful were Spanish gold and silver coins in this worldwide economy, were that they only ceased to be legal tender money in the United States in 1857!

    To be fair, the Spanish DID end up losing A LOT of that gold, to Piracy and Shipwrecks.. It's estimated there is more gold on the ocean floor, due to Spanish shipwrecks, that the amount of gold could transform Spain, even today.

      It depends on who's running against Michelle Obama. If the other person is wholly unqualified and/or unlikeable and/or unknown, voters would take what they could get. For instance, let's say the other candidate was a confirmed ex-member of ISIS whose professional background outside of fighting the infidels included flipping burgers and selling drugs to middle-schoolers and was running on a platform of legalizing the killing of puppies for bloodsport. I think the choice would be clear.

      Why are you so convinced you’re right and he’s wrong? I think your arrogance, conceit, and closed-mindedness prevents you from learning and understanding.
      It should be easy to humble yourself because there is no reason at all for your intellectual conceit about politics. How many PhDs in political science do you have? How many books and articles have you published in political science? Politics is like any academic discipline-takes years of serious study to even have a basic understanding. And there’s a zero percent chance you read academic journals on politics and a 100% chance you consume mindless ideological political propaganda.
      The other problem is your closed-mindedness. The only way you could fathom that DC was “torn up” and it was by “dems” is due to major blinders on and artificial filtering of information in your brain where you apply ideologically driven preconceptions consequently keeping your mind imprisoned in a bubble of echo chamber and ignorance.
