Question

What was the importance of the edict of milan

Answer 1

Answer:

Religious Tolerance of Christians

Explanation:

During this time and before, Christians in the Roman Empire were often the scapegoat of most small and big problems that occurred within the Empire. Until the Reign of Emperor Constantine the Great which lasted from 306-337 A.D, Christians were violently persecuted for their beliefs. Constantine himself was a Christian and thus wished to see his own Brothers and Sisters of the faith sparred the fate of death. Thus in 313 A.D, He was a great influencing factor in the acceptance and eventual proclamation of the Edict of Milan, which as a whole stopped the Persecution of Christians and eventually paved the way for Christianity to become the State Religion of Rome later in 323 A.D.
