We just learned about the Battle of Milvan Bridge where Emperor Constantine saw a vision of God.
The Emperor Constantine was the first emperor to become a Christian.
He tried to bring all of Rome together and be the only emperor, and also changed the laws so people could worship however they wanted.
During his time he also had many battles, and used the Chi-Rho symbol on his army, and he believed it was God helping lead him into battle.
Because he helped Christianity and was the first Christian emperor, he later on was called Constantine the Great.
Under Constantine's rule, the Roman empire went all the way up to England, Spain, France, all the way over to Greece, Turkey and Israel, and even covered the northern part of Africa, like Egypt.
