Who role do you think geography played in the spread of Christianity threwout the roman empire?

Answer 1

The physical geography of the Roman Empire aided the spread of Christianity in various ways. For instance, the intricate system of the roads made it possible to move from one region to another without much of a challenge.

Answer 2

A:The spread of Christianity throughout the Roman Empire really got underway during the reigns of the Christian emperors of the fourth century.

Emperor Constantine gave the Christian Church considerable state patronage, built many magnificent churches and let men of ambition know that their advancement could depend on at least claiming to have converted to the Christian faith. He also began the long persecution of the pagan temples and even executed his log-time friend and mentor on the trumped-up charge that he had altered the winds to prevent urgent food relief from arriving in Constantinople. Constantine's sons and successors continued the patronage of the Christian Church and intensified the persecution of the pagans.

In 391, Emperor Theodosius I ordered that all temples be closed and that all forms of pagan worship cease. By the end of the century, anti-pagan legislation would serve as a licence for the increasing number of acts of vandalism and violent destruction directed against pagan and Jewish places of worship carried out by Christian mobs, often led by the local clergy. As late as the sixth century, legislation was promulgated prescribing the death penalty for anyone practising pagan sacrifice.

Rome's emperors achieved the spread of Christianity by the increasingly preferential treatment of Christians, massive financial support for the Church and centuries of persecution against all other faiths.
