Emperor Constantine I effectively ended Roman paganism as he ended the tetrarchy. From a land of many gods and multiple emperors, Constantine ushered in an era defined by the principle of one God, one Emperor, and one Empire (Early Christianity, 9/11). Why he did so, whether it was solely for the political stability offered by a unified Church, or because of a personal motivation and dedication to the Christian faith, is a question tied to another: What exactly were Constantine’s beliefs?

DBQ on Han and Roman attitudes toward technology The Han dynasty and Roman empire lasted through periods of enlightenment where new ideas and concepts were brought up.

reasons that led to its 'death'. Most of the problems came from within the city and were not caused by a major military defeat. Many foolish decisions by emperors weakened the city and eventually caused the decline of the Roman Empire. Firstly, the transition to appoint new emperors in the Roman Empire was never easy. The Senate, the army and the emperors personal body know as the Praetorian Guard decided who would take the throne. But this didn't

Despite the fact that the Roman Empire ended thousands of years ago, many different parts of the empire survived and still have a huge impact on life today. The aspect of the empire that I believe have had the largest effect today is the legacy of writing and language. Many citizens of this famous empire believed that this empire would last forever. But due to weak borders, a changed capital, and a bad ruler the empire eventually met its end and collapsed. Despite this fact the power empire will

empire fell into a long period of chaos, and never fully recovered. However, in the year 193 A.D., Rome’s die was cast and an air of doom and destruction spread throughout the empire.

Introduction At its height in 117 A.D., the Roman Empire was the largest political organization in the western world, extending across Europe, Northern Africa and the Middle East (Mark, 2011). What is uncanny about this accomplishment are the numerous peoples and cultures that Rome gathered together under her banner. In my discussion post for this unit I will discuss the importance of the aftermath of the Latin Wars (340-338 B.C) specifically regarding Rome's treatment of the Latium cities and

Ancient Mesopotamia was a region in the eastern Mediterranean it was located between the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers, which indicates its name Mesopotamia is Greek for between two rivers.
