Constantine the Great
Constantine the Great, also known as Constantine I, was a Roman Emperor who ruled from 306 to 337 AD. He is best known for being the first Roman emperor to convert to Christianity and for his pivotal role in the Edict of Milan in 313, which legalized Christianity across the empire. His reign is marked by significant contributions to the spread of Christianity, including the convening of the First Council of Nicaea in 325 AD to address the Arian controversy, which sought to clarify the nature of Christ in relation to God the Father. This council produced the Nicene Creed, a foundational statement of Christian belief that affirmed the co-eternity of Jesus with God, thus shaping the theological landscape of Christianity for centuries to come.
