Description
My submission for annual Ponies Around the World event by Equestria Daily.
Here's the description:
What probably amused me most in the history of Byzantine empire (with capital in then-Constantinople, now Istanbul) is that it was once ruled by literally two empresses-sisters, Zoe and Theodora, at the same time. Sounds familiar? How cool is that!
In the picture you can see Hagia Sophia or "Holy Wisdom", built 537, which was already a Greek Orthodox basilica, a Roman Catholic catherdal, an imperial mosque and currently serves as a museum.
Have Octavia hitting the strings with wistful turkish tune If you're ever going to visit Istanbul, be sure to watch "Crossing the Bridge" first - it's a great documentary full of beautiful music.
