What happened once Constantine 1 converted to Christianity?
We do not really know if or when Constantine converted to Christianity. Some believe that he converted when he had a vision of a cross in the sky, while others say that he had a death-bed conversion. On the first of these beliefs, Michael Grant (The Emperor Constantine) says, "It is a pity that this tale does not seem to be truthful, for more reasons than one."Certainly, Constantine's mother was an avid Christian and so there is no strong reason to believe that Constantine did not at some stage convert to Christianity. The problem is that we do not know when this happened, nor what happened afterwards.
What was the reason of the Battle of Milvian Bridge?
The battle was fought over who would be the next Roman Emperor after Diocletian stepped down. Flavius Valerius Constantinus later known as Constantine the Great fought against his brother-in-law, Maxentius. Supposedly, Constantine had a vision of Christ telling Constantine to use the symbol of the cross on his men's armor.
