The late Roman Empire, which could be defined as from around 395 to 476 CE, was under the control of Christian emperors and had Christianity as its state religion.
The temples had been banned from public worship and were appropriated along with their funds and treasures by the Christian Church, without compensation. Pagans were being persecuted, although paganism continued in rural and remote areas where fromal decrees had little influence. The Church was diligent in burning all pagan literature, so that pagan beliefs could be distorted and ultimately abandoned. Even secular literature, that could have helped maintain the empire, was destroyed on the grounds that the only knowledge that was necessary was that which aided the Church.
The conditions in place were persecution and suppression, implemented with considerable zealotry.
