Theodora the Iconophile Augusta: Byzantium AGAINST the Abbasid Caliphate. |9TH CENTURY|
► SUBSCRIBE to our channel!
During the 9th century, the strength of the Islamic world under the Abbasids Caliphs was on the rise and the war between the Arabs and the Romans -under the Amorian dynasty- had reached a high peek. After the passing of emperor Theophilos (842), it was his spouse and empress Theodora that assumed the imperial office of Constantinople on behalf of her underage son. This Theodora is more famous to history readers due to her being the sovereign that officially ended the crisis of iconoclasm in the empire and restored the icons throughout the Christian East. The Caliphate regarded the assumption of power by a woman as a sign of weekness and as a fair chance for the Arabs to expand at the expense of Byzantium. The main enemies of Theodora were: the Caliphs of Egypt,...

Amalric (1136, 1163-1174)
The second son of King Fulk and Queen Melisende, Amalric inherited the Kingdom of Jerusalem at its greatest territorial extent, but also when it was seriously challenged by the brilliant Nur ad-Din, who controlled Muslim Syria. Nur ad-Din was poised to conquer Fatimid Egypt, but Amalric challenged this. Over the course of the 1160’s Nur ad-Din and Amalric waged a series of fierce wars for control of Egypt, during which Amalric’s army reached Cairo twice, in 1167 and 1168, placing Egypt under his protectorate. Amalric’s drive for Egypt ultimately failed, but he came close to bringing it under crusader control, despise his resources being considerably more limited than those of Nur ad-Din.
William, Archbishop of Tyre, describes Amalric as “a man of prudence and discretion”, who “handled with strength and wisdom” the challenges of his reign. Amalric also cultivated a close relationship with the greatest Christian ruler in the east, Emperor Manuel Comnenus of the Byzantines, marrying one of the Emperor’s relatives, the shrewd and beautiful Maria Comnena.

It seemed natural and desirable to pass on to this more interesting and less familiar series of the mistresses of the eastern Roman Empire, and the present volume will therefore tell the story of the Empresses, or Queens, as they preferred to be called, who occupied the throne set up by Constantine in New Rome, or ancient Byzantium.

Porphyra - "988AD: IN THE TIME OF BASIL II EMPEROR OF BYZANTIUM"
Duet between Vladimir, Grand Prince of Kiev,
and Princess Anna Porphyrogenita. LYRICS © 2014
Prologue:
Try to keep them, Poet
Those carnal visions of yours
However few of them there are that can be stilled,
As cryptic writings in your lines.
Try to hold them, Poet
When they come alive in your mind,
In the night or brightness of the noon.
Constantine P. Cavafy - Poet Laureate
Vladimir:
I am Vladimir the Grand Prince of Kiev
I ride on the wings of life
But the right to rule Milkagard
Stands an unattainable prize
Greek Fire and impenetrable walls
To Basil the Porphyrogenitos I stand tall
Until my pagan heart glimpsed up
To the brightest pearl of them all
Bridge
Vladimir: All roads lead to Constantinople ohhh
Azure skies and glimmering shadows, my beloved’s home
Vladimir:
While I thought I have been learning to live
I have been learning how to die
Why can’t anything stop this emptiness
Growing deep inside?
Take away these idols take them all away
She holds a consecrated key
For I am no longer desolate in heart
But inspired by Holy Flame I am free
Anna:
Two castaways trying to make some sense of this
I see a future in your eyes
Two castaways trying to make some sense of this
It’s not easy to dismiss
Bridge 1
Anna: My heart goes to Constantinople,always will belong
Azure skies and glimmering shadows are my heart’s home
Bridge 2
Vladimir: Anna can you hear my cries?
Anna: Can you feel my beating heart?
Vladimir: Can you feel my beating heart?
Screaming out your name?
Vladimir: Anna will you take my hand?
Anna: Will our people find peace?
Vladimir: Will our people find peace?
United we can!
Chorus:
Six thousand strong
Come the mighty Russians
To serve the one true king
Basil of Byzantium
Eternal is our king
The Lord of all of Greece
Eternal as the Sun
The one to bring us peace
Glory to our Emperor
Basil reigns supreme
From the Heart of Macedon
Across the mighty seas
Eternal is our king
The Lord of all of Greece
Eternal as the Sun
The one to bring us peace
Vladimir:
The aging of the body
Cuts like a cruel, cruel knife
I fear I’ll die alone
If scars portray my years
They won’t be in vain, can you hear my cry?
Poet you will sing about the day
We pledged our hearts my love and I
To the glorious empire of Greece
For what is man’s soul of culture deprived?
Anna:
This journey brought us here right where we’re supposed to be
Every time our eyes meet
This journey molded us right where we’re supposed to be
It has brought you here to me
Bridge 1
Anna: My heart goes to Constantinople,always will belong
Azure skies and glimmering shadows are my heart’s home
Bridge 2
Vladimir: Anna can you hear my cries?
Anna: Can you feel my beating heart?
Vladimir: Yes I still feel my beating heart, screaming out your name
Vladimir: Anna will you take my hand?
Anna- Yes so our lands can unite
Vladimir- Yes my love, so we can unite our lands
Chorus:
Six thousand strong
Come the mighty Russians
To serve the one true king
Basil of Byzantium
Eternal is our king
The Lord of all of Greece
Eternal as the Sun
The one to bring us peace
A Golden Age begun
Born from endless war
Under Vladimir & Anna
A Time of Peace and Love
Eternal is our king
The Lord of all of Greece
Eternal as the Sun
The one to bring us peace
Solo
Mid section
Anna: Father up above, give me courage
Give me hope, the strength to carry on
Vladimir: Children of Hellas,
The Phoenix rises, awaken now
Greece and Russia are one!
Chorus:
Six thousand strong
Come the mighty Russians
To serve the one true king
Basil of Byzantium
Eternal is our king
The Lord of all of Greece
Eternal as the Sun
The one to bring us peace
A Golden Age begun
One for all of us
The light of Greece will spread
Across the universe
Eternal is our king
The Lord of all of Greece
Eternal as the Sun
The one to bring us peace

Porphyra - "988AD: IN THE TIME OF BASIL II EMPEROR OF BYZANTIUM"
Duet between Vladimir, Grand Prince of Kiev,
and Princess Anna Porphyrogenita. LYRICS © 2014
Prologue:
Try to keep them, Poet
Those carnal visions of yours
However few of them there are that can be stilled,
As cryptic writings in your lines.
Try to hold them, Poet
When they come alive in your mind,
In the night or brightness of the noon.
Constantine P. Cavafy - Poet Laureate
Vladimir:
I am Vladimir the Grand Prince of Kiev
I ride on the wings of life
But the right to rule Milkagard
Stands an unattainable prize
Greek Fire and impenetrable walls
To Basil the Porphyrogenitos I stand tall
Until my pagan heart glimpsed up
To the brightest pearl of them all
Bridge
Vladimir: All roads lead to Constantinople ohhh
Azure skies and glimmering shadows, my beloved’s home
Vladimir:
While I thought I have been learning to live
I have been learning how to die
Why can’t anything stop this emptiness
Growing deep inside?
Take away these idols take them all away
She holds a consecrated key
For I am no longer desolate in heart
But inspired by Holy Flame I am free
Anna:
Two castaways trying to make some sense of this
I see a future in your eyes
Two castaways trying to make some sense of this
It’s not easy to dismiss
Bridge 1
Anna: My heart goes to Constantinople,always will belong
Azure skies and glimmering shadows are my heart’s home
Bridge 2
Vladimir: Anna can you hear my cries?
Anna: Can you feel my beating heart?
Vladimir: Can you feel my beating heart?
Screaming out your name?
Vladimir: Anna will you take my hand?
Anna: Will our people find peace?
Vladimir: Will our people find peace?
United we can!
Chorus:
Six thousand strong
Come the mighty Russians
To serve the one true king
Basil of Byzantium
Eternal is our king
The Lord of all of Greece
Eternal as the Sun
The one to bring us peace
Glory to our Emperor
Basil reigns supreme
From the Heart of Macedon
Across the mighty seas
Eternal is our king
The Lord of all of Greece
Eternal as the Sun
The one to bring us peace
Vladimir:
The aging of the body
Cuts like a cruel, cruel knife
I fear I’ll die alone
If scars portray my years
They won’t be in vain, can you hear my cry?
Poet you will sing about the day
We pledged our hearts my love and I
To the glorious empire of Greece
For what is man’s soul of culture deprived?
Anna:
This journey brought us here right where we’re supposed to be
Every time our eyes meet
This journey molded us right where we’re supposed to be
It has brought you here to me
Bridge 1
Anna: My heart goes to Constantinople,always will belong
Azure skies and glimmering shadows are my heart’s home
Bridge 2
Vladimir: Anna can you hear my cries?
Anna: Can you feel my beating heart?
Vladimir: Yes I still feel my beating heart, screaming out your name
Vladimir: Anna will you take my hand?
Anna- Yes so our lands can unite
Vladimir- Yes my love, so we can unite our lands
Chorus:
Six thousand strong
Come the mighty Russians
To serve the one true king
Basil of Byzantium
Eternal is our king
The Lord of all of Greece
Eternal as the Sun
The one to bring us peace
A Golden Age begun
Born from endless war
Under Vladimir & Anna
A Time of Peace and Love
Eternal is our king
The Lord of all of Greece
Eternal as the Sun
The one to bring us peace
Solo
Mid section
Anna: Father up above, give me courage
Give me hope, the strength to carry on
Vladimir: Children of Hellas,
The Phoenix rises, awaken now
Greece and Russia are one!
Chorus:
Six thousand strong
Come the mighty Russians
To serve the one true king
Basil of Byzantium
Eternal is our king
The Lord of all of Greece
Eternal as the Sun
The one to bring us peace
A Golden Age begun
One for all of us
The light of Greece will spread
Across the universe
Eternal is our king
The Lord of all of Greece
Eternal as the Sun
The one to bring us peace

Theodora the Iconophile Augusta: Byzantium AGAINST the Abbasid Caliphate. |9TH CENTURY|

During the 9th century, the strength of the Islamic world under the Abbasids Caliphs was on the rise and the war between the Arabs and the Romans -under the Amorian dynasty- had reached a high peek. After the passing of emperor Theophilos (842), it was his spouse and empress Theodora that assumed the imperial office of Constantinople on behalf of her underage son. This Theodora is more famous to history readers due to her being the sovereign that officially ended the crisis of iconoclasm in the empire and restored the icons throughout the Christian East. The Caliphate regarded the assumption of power by a woman as a sign of weekness and as a fair chance for the Arabs to expand at the expense of Byzantium. The main enemies of Theodora were: the Caliphs of Egypt, the Emirate of Melitene in Eastern
Asia Minor, the Muslim-Governer of Tarsus in Cilicia and a group of heretics known as Paulicians. Theodora was able to rise at the occasion, to defend her country and even to take the military initiative and strike back against her foes. The regency of Theodora (842-855) has been described as the " dawn of a new era" for the eastern Roman state that soon under the Macedonians would flourish and dominate the East.
