byzantine/eastern Roman Empire had many enemies
the main enemies were
sassanids
arabs
lombards
ottomans
seljuks
bulgarians
slavs
and crusades
but I would give the number 1 greatest enemy of byzantine empire to the arabs
when byzantines and persians made a peace treaty after the byzantines defeated the persians and restored their lost lands
no body would have expect the small group of tribes to fight both super powers at the same time
the first islamic empire rashidun caliphate weakened the empire even more than what the sassanid persia did to them
the arabs expanded the borders in levant and persia very fast
compared to sassanids
they took all Middle East Cyprus and africa from the byzantines and destroyed the sassanid empire fully
the most important battle in byzantine arab wars was battle of yarmouk were 200 thousand byzantines fought against 40 thousand arabs led by khalid ibn al walid one of the greatest generals in history
it was the beginning of the byzantine dark ages
even after rashidun was replaced by umayyads it was still bad for them
the umayyads tried to siege constatantinople 5 times and they all failed
the 2nd great enemy of byzantines were the sassanids
before the arab conquest that weakend the empire allot
the eastern romans werent crumbling during the war with the sassanids and they had a very long war with each other
why I didnt put the ottomans or the seljuks is because they were fighting the crumbling byzantine empire at that time
Germanic invaders,Huns, and the Sassanian empire invaded the byzantium empire and the reason the byzantium empire lasted through this was because they developed a weapon called the napalm or the Greek fire this has been Chris Brown for real trying to help the young people out with your questions please call me at 879 987 2546 and thanks to all my fans supporting me!
