- Constantine wanted to bring peace with the western with Lucinius
- 313AD. Married off his sister
- She was a Christian
- Nothing could part them
- Constantine and the other senators were fighting on what to do with to rulers
- They are trying to set up an agreement of making Christianity a religion that you can practice
- They are going to divide it into two empires , but Constantine wants to still have one empire and have everyone practice their own religion without getting killed
- Lactantias- Edict of Milan
- Basically said you could practice any religion you wanted
- The new religion was now tolerated and you would not be persecuted
