galerius
A:It was Galerius himself who ended the Great Persecution that he had earlier persuaded Diocletian to institute. He had come to realise that persecution would achieve nothing in turning followers away from Christianity.
Yes, under the influence of his co-emperor Galerius
AnswerAt the urging of his junior emperor, Galerius, Diocletian proclaimed the persecution of Christianity, the "Great Persecution", in 303 CE. However, this really had little support in the west and was driven in the east more by the presence there of both Diocletian and Galerius. Diocletian abdicated in 305 CE, and the persecution came to an end in the western half of the empire. It copntinued in the east until 311 CE, when Galerius realised that persecution was having no effect on the Christians and so issued the Edict of Toleration.
The last persecution of Christians (303-311) and the worse one, is attributed to the emperor Diocletian. However, there was the work of his co-emperor Galerius behind it. Galerius was a fiercer persecutor than Diocletian. This is the only persecution of Christians which has Benn called Great Persecution.
History shows that most Roman emperors were tolerant of Christianity. It was Galerius who formalised this by proclaiming the Edict of Toleration, overturning the Great Persecution of Diocletian.Constantine subsequently extended privileges to the Christian Church by the Edict of Milan.AnswerThe Roman emperor Galerius issued the Edict of Toleration that brought an end to the Great Persecution instituted by his predecessor, Diocletian. Strangely, it was Galerius who had pressured Diocletian to undertake the persecution of Christians. Constantine subsequently issued a further edict, the Edict of Milan that gave the Christians positive advantages.
AnswerIn 306, Constantine's father, Constantius, died, creating a vacancy for Augustus, or senior emperor alongside Galerius. In the style of a military coup, the troops in Britain hailed Constantine as Augustus, with the support of their ally, a German king named Crocus or Erocus. Galerius conceded Constantine the rank of Caesar, but made Severus his fellow Augustus. Constantine soon claimed to resume the rank of Augustus, and Galerius was obliged to acknowledge his claim.Constantine continued to rule with fellow-Augusti, but plotted their downfall. After a series of civil wars, he became sole emperor in 324 CE. He died in 337.
The two junior emperors when Diocletian and Maximian stepped down were Galerius and Contantius Chlorus (Constantine's father).
