Licinius
Licinius was a Roman Emperor who ruled in the early 4th century AD alongside Constantine I. He is best known for his role in the Edict of Milan in 313 AD, which granted religious tolerance to Christians and effectively legalized Christianity in the Roman Empire. His reign was marked by conflict and rivalry with Constantine, culminating in a civil war that led to Licinius' defeat and eventual execution. His legacy is intertwined with the transition of Christianity from a persecuted faith to a dominant religion in the Roman world.
