Solution
Emperor Constantine legalised Christianity.
Explanation:
In AD 313 Constantine issued measures (often associated with the Edict of Milan) that granted Christians legal protection and ended official persecution, effectively legalising Christianity in the Roman Empire.
He also promoted the Church’s organisation (convening the Council of Nicaea in AD 325) and built a new imperial capital at Byzantium (Constantinople), actions that helped Christianity become the empire’s dominant religion.
