In the year 330, the Roman Emperor Constantine decided that the capital of the entire Roman empire should be moved. 

The location he selected was a small Greek town by the name of Byzantium located in the middle of the Bhosperous Straits approximately 500 miles or 800 kilometers from Rome. 

From there it grew into one largest and wealthiest cities in the world today and was the seat of more than one major empire.
