Constantine the Great was not part of any significant events in History. His reign was part of a process. It was the first step of the process which led to the imperial endorsement of Christianity.
Constantine ended a system of co-emperorship by winning two civil wars and became sole emperor of the Roman Empire. Before he became sole emperor he issued, together with his co-emperor Licinius, the Edict of Milan whose aim was to finalise the termination of the Great persecution of the Christians which had been started by the emperor Diocletian and whose termination had been decreed two years earlier by the emperor Galerius in his Edict of Toleration. A junior emperor in the Roman territories in western Asia and in Egypt had ignored the edict of Galerius. As sole emperor Constantine favoured Christianity. He built important Christian churches in Rome, Constantinople and Jerusalem. He convened synods and councils to try to resolve disputes between rival Christian doctrines. He promoted Christians within the imperial administration. All but one of the subsequent emperors where Christians. The next few emperors introduced anti-pagan laws. Then the co-emperors Theodosius I and Gratian issued the Edict of Thessalonica which made mainstream Christianity (Latin or Western Church and the Greek or Eastern Church) the state religion and the sole legitimate religion in the empire. It also banned the dissident Christian doctrines, which were branded as heretic. Theodosius also persecuted the dissident doctrines, introduced further anti-pagan laws, persecuted the pagans and destroyed pagan temples and shrines.
