"Capital a Patriarchate despite the fact that it doesn't have Apostolic origins "

You must understand that Romans and their Authority was regarded of Higher importance than opinion of Apostle, most of Romans observed
Christianity as "a New Cult, Trend" and they had many similar like "cult of Mithras etc." only later Christianity was promoted in more peculiar
and serious way (after Justinian) who basically created the First Christian Empire.

May I suggest you a Brochure (not big): it's called A Byzantine (Roman) View of the West.

Basically, Catholics think that any Catholic Christian is a Brother, where Romans believe that Every Roman is a Brother, and that only THEY are the true
people on Earth, and that only their Caesar/Basileos (Emperor) is the true representative of God on Earth not Patriarchs or Popes who were merely his servents.

Romans would observe Catholics as "Barbarians" because they allowed Germanic people to take position of power, Romans observed Germans like subhumans.

From my standpoint Catholic view was ... more humane in the sense it followed Religion only and it opened it doors to everyone, while Hellenes/Romans from Balkans
and Anatolia were Purists who cared about Blood, ancestry, Imperial Authority etc....

Ok thank you for that! I want the return of then Roman Emperor one day though and that the Orthodox world from the Balkans to the tip of Russia would unite with the Catholic World from Milan to Manila.

What a combo!

And most important part of the world for our species/history, by far.

Those are Romans.

Latin Alphabet, Greek Alphabet, Cyrillic Alphabet .... Culture, Religions, Spirituality, Moralism etc..

It just failed in modern technology which isn't of great value in comparison with Culture, Religion etc.

One day, it will be a single empire again.

We need to come up with a name for this future juggernaut.

Well as I explained before the Papacy before Constantine wasn't too keen on Imperial authority since the Roman Emperors actually killed off Saint Peter and Saint Paul. Only post Constantine was when Papacy answered to the Emperor and actually the Emperor overstepped his boundaries by forcing the creation of Constantinople as a Patriarchate and even head of the the Ecumunicals something the Emperor had no right since the other members of the Pentarchy were Patriarchates since they were originally established by the first Apostles yet the Emperor manhandled the Pope into making his new self entitled Capital a Patriarchate despite the fact that it doesn't have Apostolic origins and from then on things like the Filoque clause and Hesychast controversy just further built up the tensions between East and West.

Saint Andrew founded a church in Byzantium later a.k.a New Rome aka Constantinople.

The Constantinople is the see of Saint Andrew brother of Saint Peter.


According to tradition, he founded the See of Byzantium (later Constantinople and Istanbul) in AD 38, installing Stachys as bishop. According to Hippolytus of Rome, Andrew preached in Thrace, and his presence in Byzantium is also mentioned in the apocryphal Acts of Andrew. Basil of Seleucia also knew of Apostle Andrew's missions in Thrace, Scythia and Achaea.[15] This diocese would later develop into the Patriarchate of Constantinople. Andrew, along with Saint Stachys, is recognized as the patron saint of the Patriarchate.[16]

I think Spain's should be there too. The last heir to the Byzantine throne sold his title as Basileus of the Romans to the Catholic monarchs of Spain.

The last titular Eastern Roman Emperor, Andreas Palaiologos, sold his imperial title to Ferdinand II of Aragon and Isabella I of Castile before his death in 1502.

Meanwhile you Ottomans occupied the Imperial Capital of Istanbul so it just ticked off an entire shitfest between both East and West and it even expanded to encircle the whole globe. World War 1 didn't occur in 1914 but rather during the 1600s.

In an all out war, which renaissance superpower do you think will win?

The Iberian Union or the Ottoman Caliphate?

Will Constantinople be re-Christianized or Cordoba be re-Islamized?

==FOR COMPARISON==

Territories of the Iberian Union; allies and vassals included.



Territories of the Ottoman Caliphate; allies and vassals included.



Both the Union and the Caliphate had similar technology and population levels...

So considering these factors, what Empire do you think will win an all out war? Please share your opinions and if possible, some strategies which would justify why your side would win.
