Cyrillic was literally byzantine propaganda, an effort by the Eastern Roman Empire(aka Byzantine Empire) to culturally assimilate/approach the slavs, in hopes for them to be friendlier to the Empire. Language and religion were the thing back then(and even today), having a similar language and religion made everyone friendlier.
Diplomacy, espionage, bribery, trading and huge ass walls were the strength of the Eastern Roman Empire.
And somewhere behind the Greek guy there’s Cyrillic scribing down furiously
