Constantine was a murderous tyrant, with a long list of victims, including his eldest son and his second wife, Fausta, as well as many whom he had counted as friends. Being an absolute autocrat, he believed that he could kill anyone. Even as emperor, his personal lavishness was so great it amounted to theft from the empire. One could say from this that morality was not in his DNA.

Constantine reformed the military and the bureaucracy while maintaining the existing imperial statutes, and added to them nothing of moral value.
