We know that Christians were persecuted by Decius, then during the reign of Valerian, and finally the Great Persecution at the end of Diocletian's reign. There was localised persecution under the emperor Maximinus Thrax. It is unclear whether any persecution took place under Domitian, but Edward Gibbon says that if it did it was of short duration. Most famously, Nero was said to have persecuted the Christians, but scholars say that this seems to have been limited to the city of Rome, and that Christians were not pursued and persecuted for their religion, but as scapegoats for the Great Fire of Rome.
In the reigns of all other pagan emperors, Christianity was not officially persecuted and some emperors were quite liberal in their attitudes towards Christianity.
