REVELATION ITS GRAND CLIMAX AT HAND!/Chapter Thirty Five - Executing Babylon the Great - Continue

 The city of Constantinople itself endured somewhat longer. It survived  attacks from Persians, Arabs, Bulgars, and Russians until 1203. It finally fell-not to Muslims but to Crusaders from the West.  In 1453, though, it came under the power of  the Muslim Ottoman ruer Mehed II and soon became a capital of the Ottoman or Turkish Empire. Thus, although the city of Rome fell in 410 C.E., it took many more centuries for all traces of the political Roman Empire to pass from the world scene .  And even though, its influence was still discernible in religious empires based on the papacy of Rome and the Eastern Orthodox  churches.
