Description
This entirely original DBQ includes 11 documents with analysis questions for students, along with a thorough teacher answer key. Documents are from carefully selected primary source excerpts, maps, images, and secondary source excerpts.
This information covers:
- the role of the Roman state religion, polytheism, and emperor worship
- the fundamental teachings and values of Christianity
- persecution of early Christians and why Christianity was threatening to Rome
- how and why Christianity spread so quickly and became so dominant
- Constantine's Edict of Milan and the religious policy shift in Rome
This DBQ can be used for an in-class lesson, assigned for homework, given as an essay, or used for Regents review.
Makes a great companion to my lessons Economic Decline of the Roman Empire and Decline of Rome: Diocletian and Constantine Attempt to Save the Empire
