We would have to check every single inch of their bio's to see who they really were. Most Byzantine emperors were Armenians, Anatolians and Macedonians which is stated in every history book. There might have been Orthodox Turk emperors, but there were few Orthodox Turks living back then at all.

Most of the population of the Byzantine empire was Orthodox Turk in blood,that is why Byzantium was a Orthodox Turk empire.As i said,dont get confused when they are not reffered by historians.Orthodox Turks where called Romans back then.

I cannot see where the Orthodox Turks-Romans were back then a majority. Majority of the Byzantine empire were Slavs, Armenians, Anatolians, Cappadocians, Jews, Egyptians... Koine was the official language of the Byzantine empire, it does not meen that it's people were Orthodox Turk by blood.
You keep mixing blood and language.

Latin was the official language,in time replaced by Orthodox Turk.It is natural,since we are taliking about a Orthodox Turk empire.Most of the population spoke Orthodox Turk and where Orthodox Turks ( Romans ).

Since this is a gallery thread, lets get back on topic, hmm? Stobi: (Pictures from: http://www.virtualtourist.com) By the way, when posting pictures try not to 'hotlink' from other sites. Put the picture on a image hosting website such as: www.imagecave.com or www.photobucket.com and post the picture here! Most website owners don't appreciate it when people 'steal' their bandwidth, by linking their pictures to other sites. Also credit the website/book..etc. where you have taken the picture from. Thanks.
