The western or Latin conquest of Constantinople on 13 April 1204 heralded a new era in the history of the Byzantine lands, known in the west as Romania. The internal structure and development of the Latin empire was rather complex. The principality of Morea, the third major Frankish state of Latin Romania, survived the Latin empire by some 170 years. The establishment of Latin rule over extensive portions of Romania opened the way to western immigration and settlement in the territories on a scale much larger than before 1204. The breakdown of imperial government in the years immediately preceding and particularly those following the fall of Constantinople the archontes in many areas of Romania exercised effective rule over the local population. One of the most important economic effects of the Latin conquest of Constantinople was the opening of the Black Sea to unrestricted western commerce. E-138; 8vo 8" - 9" tall .
