<u><em>Byzantium was never a city-state of great influence like that of Athens, Corinth or Sparta</em></u>, but the city enjoyed relative peace and steady growth as a thriving commercial city lent by its prominent position.


 <u><em>The site was astride the land route from Europe to Asia and the sea route from the Black Sea to the Mediterranean</em></u>, and was in the Golden Horn. An excellent and wide port.

 

Already then, in the Greek and early times of Rome, <u><em>Byzantium was famous for its strategic geographical position that made siege and capture difficult, </em></u><u><em>and its position at the crossroads of the Asian-European </em></u><u><em>trade route on land and as the gateway between the Mediterranean and the Black Seas</em></u>, they turned it into a settlement too valuable to be abandoned.

The Aztecs realized their mistake and beat the Spanish back.
