The Byzantine Empire, and its capital of Constantinople, held a strategic geographical significance. Constantinople is located right between the Black Sea and the entrance to the Mediterranean Sea. As a result most trade between Asia, Europe and North Africa had to pass through the Byzantine Empire.
The city of Rome had three major geographical advantages. First of all it was clustered around and on hills which were easy to defend in case of attack. It was inland and protected from pirate attacks, but yet not too far inland, so they were able to used the port of Ostia, giving access to sea trade.
