The answer

The city of Constantinople is ancient Byzantium. It was named after Emperor Constantine the Great, who moved the capital of the Roman Empire to it in 324 AD. The Ottoman Sultan Mehmed II conquered it in 1453 AD, and the Ottomans made it their capital until the fall of their state in 1922 AD. It was an important religious, cultural, and commercial center, and after the capital was moved to Ankara, it remained Turkey's largest and most important city. It is located on both banks of the Bosphorus Strait and is currently known as Istanbul.
