    After the sack of Constantinople, the ousting of the Royal Family, and the occupation of the Ancient Roman Capital, the Greek world was turned upside down. The Latin Crusaders now ruled over the Greek capital, and three offshoot empires sprung up around the Imperial City. The Greek people were all but defeated, and the Turks, Latins, Bulgarians, and Venetians swallowed up all that was known as the Medieval Greek world and the Eastern Roman Empire. But the Eastern Roman Empire was not gone, and the Greek dynasties were determined to recover from their losses, and by luck, skill, or both... the Eastern Roman Empire survived for another two hundred and fifty years.

    The History of Modern Greece Podcast covers the Greek people's events from the fall of Constantinople in 1453 to the Greek War of Independence in 1821-1832, through to the Greco-Turkish War from 1919 to 1922 to the present day.
