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.

Diplomacy, espionage, bribery, trading and huge ass walls were the strength of the Eastern Roman Empire.
