Walter Cronkite narrates this wonderful documentary. He was considered the most trusted man in America. We need you back Walter.

this cut off the spice trade routes from china and india that flowed into europe. this is why countries needed to find a safer route around this area, thus gave rise to the age of exploration and the travels of columbus, gomez, vespucci and others that followed.

The reason why columbus was sent to explore was to find a long lost christian empire behind the muslims (a european christian myth that was belived at the time) and to allie with it to wage a crussade to destroy and backstab islam, then to take the corpse of prophet Muhammed to the vatican to be botted in a glass infornt of the pope, read history before you talk aboutit,

Historical records only point to the myth that a Christian kingdom to the East or South of the Muslims being only a side quest for European explorers. The main goal for the Spanish and Portuguese explorers at the time was to find better routes to Asia by which to trade. Yes, Africa and some of Asia was explored in search of Prester John (the myth I believe you’re referencing), but only as a side mission for European explorers who’s true goal was to find spice routes in the 15th century.

Istanbul and Constantinople are both the original names, Istanbul is just the nickname that means "the city". They never really changed the name.

Other Christian kingdoms didn't rescue the Byzantines & push the Muslims out of Europe because they were no longer Catholic & the Byzantine Empire had residual claims to the entire Roman Empire.
