Note: This issue reflects a transformative period in Roman history marked by political consolidation and religious change. This era includes the aftermath of the Battle of the Milvian Bridge and the growing imperial support for Christianity. It represents a shift toward a more centralized and ideologically unified empire, laying the foundations for the later Byzantine state.
