Does anybody knows why the developers of the original game and its expansions never did a Byzantine campaign that featured the Byzantine Empire under Justinian the Great, the Bizantine-Persian wars or The Kommenian Dynasty?

All we had gotten is Bari, which features a fictional character, only lasts 3 scenarios and  you can never develop your city and units fully to enjoy them in all of their splendour. I would have loved a map that exploited the byzantines strengths in both sea and land just as Saladin or Francisco de Almeida did for the sarracens and portuguese.

A pity such a great civilization didn't receive the attention it deserves.
