What was the Byzantine empire?

The eastern half of the Roman Empire, which survived throughout the Middle Ages and the beginning of the Renaissance, is called the Byzantine Empire. The capital of the Byzantine Empire was Constantinople (now Istanbul). The Byzantine Empire is also known as the Eastern Roman Empire which existed between the years 395-1453.

When was the New World (America) discovered?

The New World is one of names that Europeans used to call the American continent since the end of the 15th century as a result of the discovery of America in 1492. The adjective new is used to distinguish it from the Old World, which referred to the continents already known to Europeans:

• Europe
• Asia
• Africa

According to the above, it can be inferred that the Byzantine Empire could not establish commercial relations with the New World because it disappeared before the discovery of America.
