Why Did Constantine The Great Choose To Build His Eastern Capital Where He Did?
[ send me this paper ]
7 pages in length. The significant strides made by Constantine the Great to bring unity back to the empire called for relocation of the capital that currently stood in Rome. Having been instrumental in reforming government and consolidating the Church, the Emperor had no intention of keeping the capital where it was due to a number of reasons, not the least of which included its unfavorably distant proximity to the Imperial courts, legions and eastern Imperial boundary because of its central location. Additionally, the ruinous aspects of malaria and flooding - not to mention Rome being overrun with detached politicians - made the decision to move all the more effortless. Constantine ultimately chose Byzantium as his capital's idyllic location, boasting most confidently of its two primary attributes - "strategic significance…situated at the crossroads of two continents, Europe and Asia" (Lascaratos) and a fortress that would endow him with supreme protection against enemy attack, the latter of which was a conviction that became the capital's inevitable undoing. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
