:::DeCausa simply refuses to act civil and answer the very clear question that is being presented here. That question is-other than his interpretation and without his interpretation, what academic sources say it is better to referred to this subject as the Byzantine Empire over and above the Eastern Roman Empire? Again what academic sources say that a better name for this subject is the Byzantine Empire and that should be used and the Eastern Roman title be rejected. Not google searches that DeCausa then has to tell us here mean this or that. But academic sources that explicitly say that the better, proper and correct name of this subject should be "Byzantine Empire" and not the simple and direct "Eastern Roman Empire". Not a single source I have checked that has been posted so far says the "Byzantine Empire" is more correct or more proper than "Eastern Roman Empire". I have not explanation as to why from the academic sources (which are not Eastern Roman) that DeCausa has posted that "Byzantine Empire" is more correct or proper and that it is superior to "East Roman Empire" as a matter of fact it appears to me that such a preference is the historian fallacy and we don't do things on Wikipedia based on fallacies. DeCause has not addressed any of this and continues to push for what is clearly at this point an opinion and an opinion based on how DeCausa see or interprets his sources rather than explicitedly what those sources actually say. As not one of those sources say "Hey its better to call it Byzantium rather than Eastern Roman"- not one.
