What statements about the idea of combining secular government with religious authority in the Roman and Byzantine Empires is true?
In both the Roman and Byzantine Empires, the idea of combining secular government with religious authority was integral to their political systems. The Roman Empire initially maintained a separation between church and state; however, as Christianity became dominant, emperors like Constantine the Great began to intertwine their rule with the Church, promoting the idea of the emperor as a divinely appointed leader. In the Byzantine Empire, this relationship deepened, with the concept of Caesaropapism, where the emperor wielded significant control over religious affairs, establishing the state and church as intertwined institutions that supported each other’s authority. This fusion helped to legitimize imperial power and unify the populace under a common religious and political vision.
