I just looked now-there's no reference anywhere stating Byzantium is the capital of the Empire. All that's stated is that the construction projects from 70-75 transform it into a strategic city of political and cultural importance, There's also a reference that imperial residences are being built there-but that doesn't necessarily mean it would be the capital.

So would Gallo-Roman still be suitable? I'm planning on having the Roman state in that area transition from a Roman culture into more of a Gaulish one by the 400s, so it would become "The Empire of Gauls and Romans." Though I would except having to call it the Western Empire, and the central state as the Italian Empire.
