Constantine 1 was the most famous emperor in the Roman Empire. He was famous because he was the first emperor to become christian. That made him famous because usually the Christians are the enemies. Once Constantine bcame Christian he wanted to become allies with the Christians. He became Christian after the battle on the bridge. He became christian after that because the day before the battle, Dia, the christian scribe told him that if he put the sign of the christians on all the shelids he will conquer. He did. Now he believes in their God. -

Caesar Flavius Valerius Aurelius Constantinus Augustus (27 February c. 272- 22 May 337), commonly known in English as Constantine I, Constantine the Great,was Roman emperor from 306, and the sole holder of that office from 324 until 21his death in 337. Best known for being the first Christian Roman emperor, Constantine reversed the persecutions of his predecessor, Diocletian, and issued the Edict of Milan in 313, which proclaimed religious toleration throughout the empire. The Byzantine liturgical calendar, observed by the Eastern Orthodox Church and Eastern Catholic Churches of Byzantine rite, lists both Constantine and his mother Helena as saints. Although he is not included in the Latin Church's list of saints, which does recognize several other Constantines as saints, he is revered under the title "The Great" for his contributions to Christianity. Constantine also transformed the ancient Greek colony of Byzantium into a new imperial residence, Constantinople, which would remain the capital of the Byzantine Empire for over one thousand years. -
after going to war with Lucinius, there was seven years of truce between Constantine and him. After seven years of truce, peace was broken when Lucinius sent several troops to kill sevral christians. with that doing, another war erupted between Lucinius and Constantine. after raising a flag with christ's face on it, Lucinius' troops started to fear god and retreat. At the end of the bloody battle, Constantine won.
