A couple of terms to associate with the Byzantines:
mosaics and icons
Caesaropapism: the head of state is also the head of church
Constantinople: capital city
Justinian and Theodora: our ruler extraordinaires; Justinian rules the empire through caesaropapism and an extensive bureaucracy
Hagia Sophia: one of the most famous and impactful works of architecture, this building was first a church in the Byzantine empire that is later turned into a mosque once the Islamic Empire comes to power.

As far as our Kievan Rus peeps, just remember that they are a precursor to our Russia. Centered around the city of Kiev, one of their most famous leaders was the Prince Vladimir I. More on Russia to come!
