In the West, the early part of the century was shaped by Constantine the Great, who became the first Roman emperor to adopt Christianity.

The two emperor system originally established by Diocletian in the previous century fell int ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
