Answer:
O Christians were no longer persecuted for their beliefs in the region.
Explanation:
In what is known as The Triumph of the Church or the Edict of Milan, Constantine the Great decided against persecuting any Christian during his rule of the Roman empire. Moreover, he seemed to favor the religion more than anything else, which greatly helped in the case of the Christians as they had been subjected to discrimination and other things before.
But with the "legalizing" of the Christian religion in Roman society especially in Constantinople, it ended the persecution cases of Christians. The Edict of Milan verified and publicly accepted the Christian religion, giving the believers of this religion/ followers a "free pass" to openly follow and practice their religion without being persecuted.
Thus, the correct answer is the second option.
Answer:
Option: Christians were no longer persecuted for their beliefs in the region.
Explanation:
Constantine became the first Roman emperor to accept Christianity and declared it as its empire's religion. Constantine permitted Christianity after the proclamation of the Edict of Milan. He also created Constantinople, which became the most powerful city. The Byzantine Empire emerged as Constantine decided to relocate the capital from Rome to the ancient Greek colony. In 476 CE, the Western Roman Empire collapsed, and Romulus became the last of the Roman emperors. The Eastern Empire (Byzantine Empire), after the fall of the Western Roman Empire, thrives for another thousand years. Constantinople became the capital of the Byzantine Empire, remained powerful and wealthy because of the strong military.
