Caesar Flavius Valerius Aurelius Constantinus Augustus, more commonly known as Constantine, was the first Christian Emperor of Rome. He tried to spread religious tolerance with the Edict of Milan in 303. He is recognized as a saint by many Catholic churches. He is also famous for his Greek empire, Constantinople. Constantinople was the capitol of the Byzantine Empire for over one thousand years. Although the Latin Church doesn't think of Constantine as a saint, he earned the title of Constantine the Great for his work with Christianity.
