Renaissance?[]
I think most people would call this just the beggining of the Renaissance. The Byzantine Empire was long in decline OTL. But, I guess the definition of Renaissance varries; in this timeline exploration is already a long tradition. Fall of Constantinople would be a blow to Christian Europe, but the explosion of thought and art in Italy would still happen. 38.106.150.145 03:44, November 25, 2014 (UTC)
