Literally can not, still the death of these was pretty fucking sad.
Why sad? No other empire could hope for such an emotional and heroic send-off. Most empires get exterminated suddenly and unexpectedly.

No
>Byzcucks
Hurrdurr cuck hurrdurr. Speaks volumes about you.
>EVERYONE in Constantinople were obviously 100% Greek, 100% Byzantine, there is no way people come from elsewhere.
Get out.
15 June 1888
All so that the Jews could take out their revenge on ethnic Russians, Germans, ect and enslave others. Powerful.

when Christianity was officially recognised
such failure, such decline
Coulda been worse:
>"On the third day after the fall of our city, the Sultan celebrated his victory with a great, joyful triumph. He issued a proclamation: the citizens of all ages who had managed to escape detection were to leave their hiding places throughout the city and come out into the open, as they were to remain free and no question would be asked. He further declared the restoration of houses and property to those who had abandoned our city before the siege. If they returned home, they would be treated according to their rank and religion, as if nothing had changed."
>15th Century Sultan that's nicer than 21st Century globalists
lol easy
Honestly nothing bums me out than knowing the great flame of Roman civilization was extinguished forever.

The catholics did it, Turks just put the final nail in the coffin.
Not so sad for me desu we got istanbul by it.
Rome always bounced back. It bounced back from having Constantinople occupies by ""Latins"" and split into minor empires.
But the Turks knocked them out of the game forever. And all of Europe lost something that day.
This is actually quite intriguing.
Granted, he obviously did it because he doesn't want a fucking riot- but I feel a lot of people often picture the city's fall as near-decimation. Not that there wasn't a lot of action but, y'know; less-than-stable-conditions with the locals if ya know what I mean.
One could obviously argue near-enslavement under the banner of Islam is essentially death, of course, but it's better than a lot of alternatives.
He also wanted to repopulate his new capital.
>treated according to their rank and religion
Means below Turks and below Muslims in general. Totally woke
Battle of Manzikert?
>the great flame of Roman civilization
They did it to themselves. They spread themselves far too thin and had no chance of maintaining anything outside of the Italian peninsula. They kept making promises with barbaric tribes that they couldn't keep and got Rome sacked each time for it and then lost Hispania/Carthage. No fucking chance. Fuck Roman fuckboys. They got lucky and flourished for a brief time then got what was coming.
>known as Frederick III of Germany
>is the first emperor of Germany to be called Frederick
More annoying than Henry VIII using his regnal number in Ireland
>be on Veeky Forums two years ago
>read how the sultan raped the crown prince on the altar
>become a byzaboo
>learn how the Turks brought peace and unified the Balkans
Who /HorseCockLover/ here
Rome always bounced back, until Venice relocated all of its wealth.
It bounced back though, kicked the Latins out of Constaninople and retook parts of the Balkans. It's problem was letting Turkish mercenaries into Europe later on.
>It bounced back though, kicked the Latins out of Constaninople and retook parts of the Balkans
But it was ruined
>Was an empire for over 1000 years
>Brief
Pick one
These two, as well as 1718, 30th November.
That flame was "extinguished" when they gave up their ways for hebrew mythology.
In actual fact, the European world still exists and is waiting to be reborn beautiful and new.
Sad day in history was this cuck's coronation.
Late Romanovs are not the brightest ones in a litter, but this cuck has managed to flush everything down the drain in the worst way possible.
The day Yadzgerd III was assassinated by a Christian miller while on the run.

The defeat at the Athenians at Syracuse has a lot more pathos, even if they had it coming to them.
August 15th, 1461. Fall of the Empire of Trebizond, Legitimate successor state since 1204.

We see Byzantines as defeated enemies and pseudo-Romans.
There were 8 Greeks in Istanbul who shouted "CONSTANTINOPLE" in Istanbul. They were lynched and one of them got stabbed in the leg.

Also haplogroups don't tell a shit. Most common haplogroup here is J2 and it's the most common haplogroup in East Turkestan aka Xinjiang, Azerbaijan and Crete. And those places have almost nothing to do with each other.
