Constantine the Great (A.D. 306 - 337)

Interview with Constantine the Great; date: 310 A.D


Why are you so important? 


Well, in my power, I started to let people have religious diversity.  This is very important because now Christianity was the religion for Europe. This may not seem like much, but during the Dark Ages, Christianity was the only thing that Europe could look to for guidance because they basically gave up on everything else.

What else did you do?


I created the new capital:  Constantinople.

So, why is this so important?

Because now Christianity is a huge religion in the world, and I said that everyone could believe in any religion.
