MarbleZone Posted September 12, 2011 Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 [quote name='Eva-Chan' timestamp='1315866178' post='5510396'] I have to disagree... Constantinople was notable for having [b]an almost impenetrable wall[/b] and it was constantly besieged not only as being a valued trade city but also so generals could take the title of being the person who besieged the wall and succeeded... [b]And they never made it[/b]... [/quote] Sounds pretty safe to me?... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apostle of Calamity Posted September 12, 2011 Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 [quote name='Raine™' timestamp='1315866345' post='5510410'] But they also had the largest cannon in the old world prior to the invention of rifling. [/quote] That does not change the fact that the Byzantine Empires constant boasting about having a piece of the cross made it a primary target for radical christians forming armies and attacking the city. It is a beautiful city no doubt but it can never synchronize well with "safe". [quote]Sounds pretty safe to me?...[/quote] That coupled with the fact that Constantines economy almost solely based on its trade revenue and if the trade wasn't good one day, it would turn out bad for the economy. That and the fact that the sacking of Constantinople proved that the rulers put to much trust in the Templar Knights and that constantine only had too be taken over by putting trust in the emperor.
