A proposito di questo titolo

In 1204, the Fourth Crusade, originally aimed at Egypt, instead turned on Constantinople, the greatest Christian city in the world. This episode dives into the chain of events that led to the sack: the diversion to Zara, the Venetian doge Enrico Dandolo's cunning, the blind Alexios Angelos's desperate promises, and the siege itself. We explore how crusaders, who had sworn to fight for Christendom, shattered the city's defenses, looted its treasures, and installed a Latin emperor. The aftermath was devastating: the Byzantine Empire fractured into successor states, and the divide between Eastern and Western Christianity, already deep, became an abyss. This is the story of a betrayal that still echoes in relations between Orthodox and Catholic worlds today.
