The History of Byzantium

Robin Pierson — independent historian, 340+ episodes into a sequential history of Byzantium

Robin Pierson's chronological march through the Eastern Roman Empire from 476 onwards, with periodic guest interviews on adjacent topics. Military content is intermittent — politics and religion dominate between campaigns — but when Pierson reaches a major engagement (Yarmouk, Manzikert, the Fourth Crusade), the operational treatment is patient and clear.
