Medieval Greece

= Byzantine period and Frankokratia =

Byzantine Greece, Byzantine Greek successor states of the Byzantine Empire (Empire of Trebizond, Despotate of Epirus, Despotate of the Morea, Empire of Nicaea, Empire of Thessalonica, Principality of Theodoro), and Frankokratia (after 1204, when Crusader states were established on the territory of the dissolved Byzantine Empire).

In 330 the Emperor Constantine the Great changed the capital of the Roman Empire from Rome to Constantinople. Greek population was part of the Empire and the Eastern part of the Roman Empire was already heavily Hellenized and Emperor Heraclius completed the Hellenization (replaced Latin with Greek as the official language, etc.) of the Byzantine Empire.

Modern Era

= [[Ottoman Greece]] =

== 1461–1799 ==

( * ) Greeks helped the Christian armies.

( ** ) Greeks helped the Russian army.

In 1460 the Ottomans conquered the Despotate of the Morea, in 1461 the Empire of Trebizond (the Akcakale castle captured by the Turks in 1467 though), in 1475 the Principality of Theodoro, in 1479 the Despotate of Epirus and by 1500 most Greece was ruled by the Ottoman empire. Holdouts included Rhodes, conquered in 1522, Cyprus in 1571, Crete, retained by the Venetians until 1669, and the Ionian islands which remained primarily under the rule of the Republic of Venice.
