Constantine XI Palaiologos
Constantine XI Palaiologos was the last Byzantine Emperor, reigning from 1449 until his death in 1453 during the fall of Constantinople to the Ottoman Empire. Known for his bravery and leadership, he was a figure of resistance against the advancing Ottoman forces led by Mehmed II. Despite his efforts to defend the city, he ultimately met his fate in battle, marking the end of the Byzantine Empire.
