Why did the Byzantine Empire become more Greek than Roman?

Byzantines didn't "become more Greek than Roman". They were already Greek to start with.
But anyways... lets not have me rant about that part.
The population was Greek. The empire was split into West and East. West centered on Rome (before the fall) and the East on Constantinople (A town in Greek). From the division working language was Greek.
Greek language and couture was more prevalent in the Eastern Roman Empire. When the fall of the West Byzantine court held onto the Latin language for official decrees and other state documents, but eventually even that was lost to the grater Greek influence.
Hoped this helped! Remember to change this to your own words. <span />

What was the purpose of earldoms

bulgar [2K]

Hello Martincoretox9aum, an earl is a member of the nobility. The title is Anglo-Saxon in origin, akin to the Scandinavian form jarl, and meant "chieftain", particularly a chieftain set to rule a territory in a king's stead. In Scandinavia, it became obsolete in the Middle Ages and was replaced by duke (hertig/hertug/hertog). In later medieval Britain, it became the equivalent of the continental count (in England in the earlier period, it was more akin to a duke; in Scotland it assimilated the concept of mormaer). However, earlier in Scandinavia, jarl could also mean a sovereign prince.<span>[citation needed]</span> For example, the rulers of several of the petty kingdoms of Norway had the title of jarl and in many cases they had no less power than their neighbours who had the title of king. Alternative names for the rank equivalent to "Earl/Count" in the nobility structure are used in other countries, such as the hakushaku of the post-restoration Japanese Imperial era.In modern Britain, an earl is a member of the peerage, ranking below a marquess and above a viscount. A feminine form of earl never developed; instead, countess is used.
