Constantine convened the First Council of Nicaea in 325 AD to address divisions within Christianity, particularly regarding the nature of Christ and the Arian controversy. He sought to unify the Christian Church under a single doctrine to strengthen the empire and reduce internal conflict. By inviting bishops from across the empire and providing resources for their travel and accommodations, Constantine facilitated open discussion and debate. The council ultimately produced the Nicene Creed, establishing foundational Christian beliefs.
