Constantine XI Dragases Palaiologos 8 February 1405 – 29 May 1453) was the last Byzantine emperor, reigning from 1449 to his death in battle at the Fall of Constantinople in 1453. Constantine’s death marked the end of the Byzantine Empire, an institution tracing its origin to Constantine the Great’s foundation of Constantinople as the Roman Empire’s new capital in 330. Since the Byzantine Empire was the Roman Empire’s medieval continuation, with its citizens continually referring to themselves as Romans, Constantine XI’s death and Constantinople’s fall also marked the definitive end of the Roman Empire, founded by Augustus almost 1,500 years earlier.
