"The city оf Cоnstаntinоple wаs the cаpital of the Byzantine Empire and has been significant in world history for centuries, being the center of several countries and empires and housing the emperor at one point in history. Constantinople was an ideal location as it became a unique center for trade due to its geographic location, being surrounded on three sides by water. Today, it is called Istanbul." "The city was founded in 330 A.D.; however, prior to the name change, it was called Byzantium and served as the center of the Byzantine Empire, the eastern segment of the Roman Empire. The city was already considered powerful because of its geographic location in Asia and Europe; it had a large port that surrounded three out of four sides of the city, which benefited the commerce and defense sectors of the city." Based on the image and the excerpts, why was the location of Constantinople important for its development?
