I thought Osman was born a century before than?

Ok.

Ah, well.

They'd be called the Eastern Roman Empire, with Romania as shortform.

I'm having a bit of a conflict. I think if the Byzantines did recover and reestablish control over the Crescent, and held it, it'd kind of be odd. It might be neat if they fell afterwards, roughly around OTL, but that'd take a great deal of explaining. And maybe some space bats.
