People are naturally hostile against those who appear 'different' from themselves. Mormons are persecuted by people who believe that they are too different to be accepted into society. Historically, the worst persecution was in the 1830's and 1840's, when Mormons were forced from their homes four times - in New York, Ohio, Missouri, and Illinois. Often this was because the local residents were afraid that Mormons would become the majority and sway local politics. Also many people did not like that Mormonism was not a traditional Christian religion. Today, persecution against Mormons is mostly done by those who misunderstand the teachings of the church or by those who disagree with the conservative standards of Mormons.

This is what we now call a propaganda technique. If you can convince a population that or any group of people that others are not people because of any particular characteristic, you can count on them to believe persecuting and killing them is the same as persecuting an animal. Useful for tyrants since the dawn of civilization.

Not particularly. The Salem Witch Trials were persecuting so-called witches, and Nazi anti-Semitism was persecuting Jews. They both made the persecuted people end up in smoke, but other than that, I can't think of anything.
There are no emperors in Rome now-a-days, and nobody is persecuting Christians in Rome. Indeed, Rome is the centre of the Roman Catholic Church.
