The city of Rome, city of Legions that conquered the known world. City of Pontius Pilate, known for his involvement in the Crucifixion of Christ. The city fell today, to a man from the Rome of the East, Constantinople.

Belisarius rode on a white horse, with his legions behind him. They marched in unison together, Belisarius at the head. Now, the Byzantines would unify all of the Empire of old together, into one revived Roman Empire.

After Justinian passed away, the Romans turned into a Republic and from then to now, it has always been mainly a Republic. With Greek and Latin as offical languages, the Roman-Byzantine Republic continued a Roman Empire under Republicanism.

Christianity would still be around, the state faith for some time. The Romans would most of the old Empire, as well as new additions.

When the Turks came around, Rome made them into their service, the Turkish were used in the military and other things.

The capital was Constantinople, though Rome remained the seat of the Senate, until 1776, when the Senate moved to Constantinople. The Roman Legions became ceremonial, in their armor, as modernisation came in.

By 1933, the Roman Empire expanded from France to the East. In Russia, Stalin rose to become a Roman Field Marshal, and Lenin took a senator role.

Lenin was a senator and Stalin a field marshal. Pax Romana has mainly endured, no wars have really been fought by Rome-Constantinople.

More later as I think of some more. This is somewhat like a rough copy (I suppose) but if you have any thoughts like how did I do on this so far, feel free to tell me.
