Скачать или смотреть How Constantine Made Rome Christian: The Edict of Milan | Biography

Witness the transformation of the ancient world under Constantine the Great, the architect of the Christian Empire. This biography explores how the Roman Empire emerged from the systemic crisis of the third century and the reforms of Diocletian—including the Tetrarchy and the fight against rampant inflation.
We detail Constantine's rise to power, his military triumphs, and his introduction of the highly stable gold Solidus. The video analyzes the monumental shift of the political axis eastward to the new capital, Constantinople. Crucially, we examine the permanent religious change signaled by the 313 Edict of Milan, which ended persecution and granted tolerance to Christians.
Finally, we discuss Constantine's direct control over the Church—an early form of Caesaropapism—demonstrated by his convening of the Council of Nicaea to resolve the Arian controversy. Understand how the divisions he institutionalized paved the way for the future Great Schism between East and West.
