b) Babylon

c) Rome

d) Athens

The historic city that the Byzantine Empire lost between 565 CE and 1360 CE was Rome.

The Byzantine Empire claimed Rome in the 6th century but later gave it to the papacy as the major seat and capitol of the papal state.

The Byzantine Empire, the continuation of the Roman Empire in Eastern Europe, existed until the Ottomans conquered the territory in 1453. The Capital city of the Byzantine Empire was Constantinople, and the language spoken in this region was Greek, not Latin.

The loss of Rome marked a significant shift in power dynamics during that period of history.
