Christianity
Because Emperor Constantine made it the official religion of the Roman Empire in the East. year 240 ad
Constantine was important to the spread of Christianity because he was considered to be the first Christian emperor. He actually made it legal to be a Christian or to be of the Christian faith.
Both Islam and Christianity religions were spread through people free choice and will. However, the early spread of Islam was through fighting against the pagans who were attacking Muslims from time to time. While the early wide spread of Christianity was through the convert of the emperor Constantine to Christianity and accordingly persuaded the empire people to convert to Christianity.
Constantine helped spread Christianity throughout the Roman Empire. He issued the Edict of Milan in 313, which granted religious tolerance to Christians and allowed them to practice their faith openly. Constantine's conversion to Christianity and support of the religion played a significant role in its growth and development.
to me it does not matter when or where it happened however i do have some belif that it started after the death of Christ, which shows me that it has grown and spread since then The answer to the question is: Christianity became declared legal under the rule of the Roman emperor Constantine in 313 A.D. Chrstianity was called Christianity after Christ came and ascended.
As Roman Emporer, Constantine declared Christianity to be the official religion of the Roman Empire. At the time, the Empire was vast, so Christianity spread quickly.
More than anyone before him, Emperor Constantine spread Christianity throughout the Roman Empire. True, Christianity was already well established, especially in the Greek-speaking east, long before the fourth century, but Constantine gave the religion state patronage, offered career preferment to those who claimed to be Christians, and began the long persecution of the pagan temples. From this time, and with this impetus, Christianity spread quickly in the Roman Empire.

I learnt this in worl religions...I can't remember which emperor, but I'm pretty sure it was after Nero...anyway this guy was going to battle with an army and he claimed that god spoke to him and told him to mark their shields with his symbol and they would win, and so they did mark their shields, and they did win, they then returned to Rome and Christianity was made legal and it spread like wildfire...oh I remember his name now Emperor Constantine...so really Christianity didn't convert anybody, an emperor allowed already converted peopel to practice without fear of death and so it spread faster
