Anti-Christian policies in the Roman Empire
Anti-Christian policies in the Roman Empire
occurred intermittently over a period of
about three centuries
until the year 313 when the
Roman Emperors
Constantine the Great
and
Licinius
jointly promulgated the
Edict of Milan
which legalised the
Christian
religion. The
persecution of Christians
in the
Roman Empire
was carried out by the state and also by local authorities on a sporadic,
ad hoc
basis, often at the whims of local communities.. Empire-wide persecution took place by decree of the emperors
Maximinus Thrax
and
Decius
.
