Question 5 • MN-World History A-CR

Why was Constantine’s conversion to Christianity significant?

Answer
A
His conversion signaled that Christianity was the official religion of the empire.
B
His conversion marked the beginning of the persecution of other religions.
C
His conversion meant that Christians would no longer be persecuted.
D
His conversion moved the Roman Empire toward pacifism.

Explanation

Constantine’s support for Christianity helped end state persecution of Christians and allowed the religion to grow openly. His conversion did not make Christianity the empire’s official religion; that happened later under Emperor Theodosius I. It also did not establish pacifism or immediately begin persecution of other religions.
