Just out of curiousity, why did Constantine make Byzantium the capital?

Okay, Though it seems odd to me to have a Greek Empire with an Egyptian Capital-looks weird on a map, too. Would there be any chance of the later moving of the capital to a city of import or former import in Greece itself?

Also, I was thinking about how this timeline would effect vexillology. Would official state flags start appearing earlier in Europe, because of the split? Or would they not develop fully until the 12-16th centuries? Or does it really matter?
