This battle was the figurative bridge between old pagan Rome and new Christian Rome. And once Constantine had crossed that bridge, there was no turning back. Constantine the Great, after winning this battle against his brother-in-law Maxentius and taking power at Rome, and strongly influenced by his mother, forcefully steered Romans away from the traditional worship of their classical gods toward Christianity, setting Rome on two paths - the adoption of Christianity as the state religion, and the relegation of the city of Rome to obscurity as the Western Roman Empire collapsed within 175 years"-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 00 $a Constantine $b I, $c Emperor of Rome, $d -337. 600 10 $a Maxentius, Marcus Aurelius Valerius, $c Emperor of Rome, $d -312. 650 0 $a Saxa Rubra, Battle of, Italy, 312. 651 0 $a Rome $x History $y Constantine I, the Great, 306-337. 941 $a 1 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20220104014634.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=63E2AB2A6D2E11ECB3EC20C24FECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
