Imperator Diocletian Facts
The Roman Emperor Diocletian of Meteoi ruled the country from 284 to 305.
He was also born into a humble family that was not a ruler at all in Dalmatia.
How did Diocletian succeed in ruling the country?
Then, with his hard work and diligence, he succeeded in being promoted to many high positions in the national army until, not long afterward, he became a commander of the cavalry in the private army of the Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius Carus..
Then, after the death of King Carus and the death of his son, the Roman King Numerian, while carrying out its fierce campaign against the Sassanid state, he had succeeded in having Diocletian crowned at that time as emperor..
Also, after that, the other son of Emperor Carus, who was nicknamed Belsk Carinus the Roman, refused to acknowledge the fact that Diocletian was the emperor and ruler of the country, but despite that, it was Diocletian who fought with him, defeated him, and then eliminated him..
Reigns of Emperor Diocletian
The Roman Emperor Diocletian carried out military operations in order to secure the borders of the empire he protected.
As a result, he knowingly eliminated any matter that he considered at a certain time to be a major threat to his authority.
He launched a large number of these military campaigns between the years 285 and 299, in which he succeeded in defeating both the Sarmatians and the Dacians..
From Qom, at the same time, he also defeated the Amanids in the year 288, and succeeded in defeating all those rebels who were the ones claiming the throne in Egypt between the year 297 and
His position on Christianity and Christians
In fact, for most of the years of his rule, the Roman Emperor Diocletian was keen to follow a policy that enjoined both tolerance and religious peace with Christians..
However, his policy turned again against Christians in the periods that followed the end of his rule.
Accordingly, Emperor Diocletian had issued approximately four official decrees. These decrees were between Daghami 302-305 AD. The purpose of those decrees was that they actually spoke about the persecution and war against Christians.
Also, at that time, official decrees had witnessed the order to burn the Bibles, the most important religious books, and then prevent all Christians in the country from any attempt to gather..
Not only that, but he issued an order whose purpose was to demolish churches, and then he succeeded in killing a large number of militants, killing more than approximately a thousand Christians..
Accordingly, there was an exhortation or prohibition from the state in that matter, urging people not to perform any form of worship, whether in the form of prayers or usual religious rituals..
He also issued, in March of the year 303 AD, two successive official circulars urging the imprisonment of all leaders in the churches and then persecuting and torturing them with the intention of making numerous attempts to force them to leave the faith..
