The Roman Empire was not divided into two. In 286 Emperor Diocletian created a co-emperorship with two senior emperors and two junior emperors. The senior emperors took charge of the east and the west respectively. The junior emperors were put in charge of troubled frontier areas along the rivers Rhine and Danube which were in the west and the east respectively. These were administrative subdivisions of a single empire. Diocletian was keen to stress the empire was indivisible. This tetrachy (rule by four) soon collapsed. It was followed by alternations of periods with co-emperors and periods with single emperors.
Co-emperorship had already existed before Diocletian. There had been periods when an emperor and his eldest son were co-emperors, with one in charge of the east and the other in charge of the west.
Diocletian's most enduring innovation was the creation of an imperial capital in the west and imperial capital in the east. These were Milan and Nicomedia. These capitals were later transferred to Ravenna and Constantinople respectively.
