The story of Constantino
Constantine legalized Christianity, called the Council of Nicaea and refounded Byzantium as his own city in 330 — Constantinople held the Roman name and the Roman law until 1453, more than a thousand years after the western empire ended. The city is now Istanbul, whose name probably comes from a Greek phrase meaning to the city. The name is used across Italy, Spain and Latin America.
