Answer

The Byzantine Empire fell in 1453. The immediate cause of its fall was pressure by the Ottoman Turks. The Ottomans had been fighting the Byzantines for over 100 years by this time. In 1454, Constantinople finally fell to them and their conquest of the Byzantine Empire was complete.

Reasons

Attacks from European Crusaders, Arabs, and Turks.

Attacks from European Crusaders, Arabs, and Turks were most responsible for the fall of the Byzantine Empire.
Constantine I, emperor of Rome, decided in 330 AD that Byzantium would be the capital of the Roman Empire.

The Battle of Manzikert in 1071, was the first of the major battles that started the final days of the empire. The Crusades, the worry of the constant Muslim threat to expand to the west, and internal conflicts that accelerated the ending of the Byzantine empire.
