This short explains how the Fall of Constantinople ended the Byzantine Empire and reshaped the medieval world. A powerful Ottoman force besieged the city by land and sea, using artillery to break its legendary walls. Despite determined resistance, the defenders lacked numbers, resources, and allies. When the city fell, political and religious power shifted eastward and major trade routes changed direction. The event marked the end of an old imperial order and the rise of a new world power.
