Do you include Byzantium as part of Europe?

Good question - I'd probably consider Byzantium to be more Asian than European, but it would have been more accurate to say Western Europe.

And it's been a few decades since I studied Islamic History, but I'm pretty sure they didn't start going downhill until a couple centuries after the 8th. But I do think their contributions to civilized culture peaked well more than half a millennium ago.
