Once the state acknowledged Christianity, unrest ceased and the state regained legitimacy in the eyes of the Christian masses.
How did Christianity strengthen the Roman Empire?
A: The unity of the Roman Empire meant that the emperor's word was law. When Constantine urged all Roman citizens to follow his lead and worship the Christian God, and when he made it clear that men of ambition would further their careers by adopting his religion, the entire empire knew what he expected. When Theodosius made Christianity the official religion of Rome in 381, this meant that his subjects were required to become Christians. Just a few years later, when he made the public worship of the pagan gods a crime punishable by death, his word carried right across to every corner of the empire. A: The unity of the Roman Empire certainly helped the spread of Christianity, but is unlikely to have helped Christianity become the empire's main religion. In fact, Emperor Constantine gave state patronage to Christianity in the belief that Christianity's own unity would help create greater unity in the Roman Empire. He is reported to have been dismayed to find just how disunited Christianity really was. It was state patronage by a succession of Christian emperors, accompanied by persecution of the pagan temples that led to the dominance of Christianity.
How did isolationism affect the spread of Christianity in Korea?
Isolationism in Korea, particularly during the Joseon Dynasty, limited foreign influence and restricted the spread of Christianity. However, the arrival of Western missionaries in the late 19th century coincided with the decline of isolationist policies, allowing Christianity to gain a foothold. Despite initial resistance, the religion gradually spread through education and social services provided by missionaries. Ultimately, isolationism delayed the growth of Christianity but did not prevent its eventual establishment in Korean society.
