Answer:

Roman Emperor Constantine 1 had decided to move the capital of the Roman Empire from Rome to Constantinople(modern-day Turkey), in Byzantium, a strategic place to trade for its connection to the sea. So after the fall of the West Roman Empire, the Byzantine Empire was the continuation of the empire for the other 1000 years. The Byzantine Empire ended with the invasion of the Ottomans in 1453.

The Roman Empire survived more because it had economic stability. Its provinces produced food and other goods, carried out trade that brought wealth and also paid taxes. The empire was also well protected.

Civil wars

The Roman Empire always struggled with civil wars, especially as foreign wars became more frequent and dangerous. That seems counterintuitive, but it makes sense in a way. Roman generals were not always looking out for the best interests of the Roman Empire, and many ambitious men had no compunctions about sacrificing the empire’s security to take advantage of a bad political situation for personal ascendancy.

This was always going to be a problem because of how big the Roman Empire was. Giving provincial generals powerful armies was necessary to allow the provinces adequate resources to defend themselves without the presence of the emperor, who would take weeks to reach the affected region with his army. However, he always had to keep the largest army, so as to maintain his supremacy over his subordinates. This sometimes meant that the provinces did need his superior resources to properly address their threats.

When the emperor wasn’t fast enough, it would lead to a lot of dissatisfaction from the provinces and the governors. When this happened countless times over the course of several decades, the dissatisfaction would build up until it finally boiled over in the form of civil war or even separatist movenents.
