Constantine served under both Diocletian and Galerius and was raised to Augustus in 305 and proclaimed Emperor by the Army in York in 306. He became sole emperor of the West and East in 324. He restructured the government and separated civil and military authority. To combat inflation, he struck the gold solidus, a coin that became a standard for 1000 years. He decriminalized Christianity with the Edict of Milan in 313 and called for the First Council at Nicaea which the Nicene Creed was born out of. He carried out successful campaigns against the Franks, Alemanni, Goths and Sarmatians. He built a new Imperial palace at Byzantium and renamed it Constantinople, which later became the capital of the Byzantine Empire. He replaced Diocletian’s Tetrarchy with a period of Dynastic succession. He became a significant figure in the history of Christianity, building the Church of the Holy Sepulcher and was the 1st Roman Emperor to be baptized. He died in 337 AD.
