Okay...
Lame history lesson ON:
The Byzantine empire was an Eastern Roman/Greek empire. The capital was
Constantinople, which is now modern-day Istanbul, capital of Turkey (an Islamic
country). Constantinople fell to the Turks in 1453.
The Byzantine empire doesn't EXIST anymore. It was ruled by an *Eastern
Orthodox Church*.
Having said that, why in the world would all the middle-eastern countries
(which are mostly populated by Muslims) combine and form a "New Byzantine Army"
(as you call it)?
