The Byzantine Empire is technically a surviving part of the remaining Roman Empire. When the Roman Empire split, the Byzantine Empire managed to last another thousand years. It had its own Orthodox Church. Western Europe was basically dominated by the Pope of the Roman Catholic Church - his word was law.
