Choose: Byzantium, Constantinople, Istanbul.
Explanation: The city on the Bosporus (between the Black Sea and the Mediterranean/Aegean route) was founded as Byzantium, rebuilt/renamed Constantinople by Constantine in 330 CE (also called New Rome in imperial terms), and is today Istanbul. It was not Baghdad, and it was not simply called "Rome" (aside from the imperial epithet New Rome).
