  • Constantinople was the imperial capital of the Roman Empire, the Byzantine/Eastern Roman Empire, the Latin Empire and the Ottoman Empire.

Constantinople as the name of the city was officially deprecated in favor of the Turkish name Istanbul in 1930 with the Turkish Postal Service Law, as part of Atatürk's national reforms.
