Theodosius did not divide the empire. He made his sons co-emperors, one for the east and one for the west. The empire had had co-emperors (one in the west and one in the east) for centuries and this was a partition of spheres of jurisdiction between the co-emperors, not a division of the empire. Theodosius' decision was in keeping with this tradition. His death (in 395) is seen as marking the division of the empire because of the events that followed. The two sons were very young and incapable and politicians in the west and the east took advantage of this for scheming against each other. More importantly, the west soon crumbled under the weight of the Germanic invasions, a sting of usurpations and weak leadership and became a puppet of the emperor of the east.
