You have to look into the claims of Fomenko.
I am sure he is a crank - but the basis of his claims is that whole swathes of history have been made up or didn't happen.
So - when you point out inconsistencies in these claims - you have to bear in mind that Fomenko is challenging the very foundations you are using in order to raise such inconsistencies. If that makes sense?
In the interview above - Kasparov does talk a bit about the Byzantine Empire. So that might be worth checking out.
I dunno. Seems like it's not worth the time.
If you want alternative history on the Byzantine Empire, check out "Secret History" by Procopius.
