Where did europeans learn christian tradition?
Christianity came to Europe very early. In Acts, it says that there were Jewish people from Rome in Jerusalem at the very beginnings of the Church. It is likely that some of these were among the first converts to Christianity. In the New Testament, we learn that Paul spread Christianity in Greece, and there were many other Christians doing the same thing at the same time in other parts of the Roman world. Christianity came to Rome before Paul took it to Greece. The Jewish Christian couple, Aquila and his wife Priscilla were in Corinth before Paul reached there. They had come from Rome quite recently, when the Jews were (temporarily) expelled from there.
What is the connection between ancient Rome and the spread of Christianity?

They were originally called Latin or Western Christianity and Greek or Eastern Christianity respectively.
