I want to know the answer to the following question:
What was bolstered by the the final downward spiral of the Empire of Trebizond ?
All the background I'm provided with is that "The interest in the Classical Greek heritage was complemented by a renewed emphasis on Greek Orthodox identity, which was reinforced in the late Medieval and Ottoman Greeks' links with their fellow Orthodox Christians in the Russian Empire.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: yes
