Who ended the persecution of Christians when he seized powers in 306 AD and made Christianity legal?
The persecution of Christians was effectively ended by Emperor Constantine the Great when he seized power in 306 AD. He issued the Edict of Milan in 313 AD, which granted religious tolerance throughout the Roman Empire and made Christianity legal. This marked a significant turning point for Christians, allowing them to practice their faith openly and without fear of persecution. Constantine's support for Christianity also led to its eventual establishment as the dominant religion in the empire.
Which Roman Emperor accepted Christianity and ended the persecution of christians?
The answer is probably too complex for a quick "WikiAnswer." Here's a brief summary. Various (non-Christian) commentators describe with fair believability the conditions in the Empire under various emperors. Starting with Nero (54-68 C.E.), most did not persecute Christians specifically, but rather targeted all groups that were seen as subversive. Christians were certainly part of that, but most emperors did not specifically seek out Christians. By the time of Diocletian (284-305) the imperial attitude towards groups like the Christians was quite mellow. Diocletian, however, had a personal problem with Christians, and under his reign there was a final Great Persecution. Just how many died isn't clear, and estimates range from maybe 2,000 (Origen) to over 100,000. Diocletian's 21 year reign ended with a confused welter of successors who ruled each for a few months at most, followed by Constantine the Great who became emperor in 306. In 311 his co-emperor Galerius stopped imperial persecution of Christians. A year or so later Constantine declared himself Christian and issued the Edict of Milan, which not only declared toleration for Christians, but reversed all judgments against Christians for their religion, including returning confiscated property. As the first Christian emperor of Rome, Constantine was also the first Christian emperor to go to war against other Christians over a difference in beliefs.
Whose persecution was outlawed by Emperor Constantine?
Persecution of Christians, and maybe some others.
What effectively ended Diocletian's persecution of the Christians?
AnswerAt the urging of his junior emperor, Galerius, Diocletian proclaimed the persecution of Christianity, the "Great Persecution", in 303 CE. However, this really had little support in the west and was driven in the east more by the presence there of both Diocletian and Galerius. Diocletian abdicated in 305 CE, and the persecution came to an end in the western half of the empire. It copntinued in the east until 311 CE, when Galerius realised that persecution was having no effect on the Christians and so issued the Edict of Toleration.
