The Roman Catholic Church originated when Constantine, the emperor of Rome, instituted Christianity as the state religion of the Roman Empire.

The Church was originally started (birthday) on Pentecost when the Holy Spirit descended upon the Apostles and sparked them to begin evangelizing. Constantine called for the Council of Nicea so as to organize the structure and define the beliefs of the Church.
