There has never been a Roman emperor who was split in two. If you mean the Roman empire, that too, was never split. The terms Western and Eastern regarding the Roman Empire was/is a devise used by historians in their writings so that their readers are able to understand them more clearly. When the western part of the empire fell, the empire continued despite the loss of its western territories. The closest that the empire ever came to being "split" was when Diocletian divided it into four areas with his two Caesars and two Augusti, which were supposed to make the vast Roman territory easier to rule.

Why did the Roman Empire split into the Eastern and Western Roman Empire?

The empire was never split into two parts. Eastern Roman Empire and Western Roman Empire are terms which have been coined by historians. The Romans has only one term: Roman Empire. Emperor Diocletian created a tetrarchy (rule by four). He was a senior emperor with fellow general Maximian who was his co-emperor. Maximian was senior emperor in the west and Diocletian was senior emperor in the east. Two junior emperors were also appointed. They were subordinate to the senior emperors and took charge of areas of the frontiers which were under the greatest pressure from attacks from outside, the river Rhine in the west and the river Danube in the east. The four units were administrative units of a single empire. Diocletian stressed that the empire was indivisible. The arrangement was designed to improve the defence of the vast frontiers of the empire which were constantly attacked.
