Diocletian divided Rome because he thought it was too big and it would take months to receive a message and send one back so he divided it into western Rome and eastern Rome after time passed eastern Rome became better because all the money that China was sending eastern Rome received it. Also as time passed western Rome got invaded by the barbarians and the sabotaged all of western Rome. Many people say that Rome fell but other people consider it as it being adapted :)

The splitting of the Roman Empire by Diocletian in 286 AD was primarily for administrative purposes. The tetrarchy system was introduced to share power and stabilize the empire. Diocletian ruled the eastern half while three other rulers (Maximian, Galerius, and Constantius Chlorus) ruled the western half, collectively known as the tetrarchs. This division eventually laid the foundation for the later division of the empire into Western and Eastern Roman Empires.
