6. How did trade with the Venetians contribute to the fall of the Byzantine empire?
a. Trade with the Venetians contributed to the fall of Byzantium as they participated in the 4th crusade which saw the conquering of the capital.
The Fall of Constantinople was the result of the siege of the Byzantine capital by the Ottoman army, led by Sultan Mohammed II. This event marked the end of the millennial Byzantine Empire.
Byzantium was already weakened and divided in the last two centuries, a shadow of the old Empire. The Fall of 1204 by the Crusaders and later, after its recapture in 1261, political and religious disputes, the inability to help from the West, the poor economic situation and the flight of human resources, led to the gradual weakening and shrinking. The occupation of Gallipoli in 1354 by the Ottomans, which brought hordes of fanatical Muslim warriors to Europe, gradually encircled Byzantium, which in 1373 became a tributary to the Ottoman sultan.
Thus, the Fall came as a natural result of the uninterrupted expansion of the Ottoman Empire in the wider region. The clashes were particularly unequal in favor of the Turks, to the point that the sources mention the outcome of the siege. The consequence of the Fall was the relentless continuation of the territorial advance of the Turks in North Africa and Central Europe. At the end of the 17th century the Ottoman Empire reached its peak, threatening Vienna.
