Prior to being known as Istanbul, Constantinople was the capital and seat of the Eastern Roman Empire since Emperor Constantine I in 330 AD. Constantinople had been under Christian Roman rule for centuries prior, and was already a centre of trade, science and art. https://www.worldhistory.org/article/1179/trade-in-the-byzantine-empire/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byzantine_science
