Now religion. For most of Roman history, their religion is the Roman Pantheon. Now near the end of what is called the Roman Empire, when Constantine comes around in the early fourth century, Christianity gets legalized, and Theodosius, who is the last emperor to rule over both East and West, he makes Christianity the official religion. Since the Eastern Roman Empire's roots, the Byzantine Empire's roots, are considered to be with Constantine, it has a Christian nature from the beginning, and it only becomes more and more Christian over time. In other videos, we will talk about the eventual spiritual split between East and West, the Latin Christian Church and the Greek Christian Church, and they're going to diverge more and more as we go into the year 1054, when there's the official Great Schism. In terms of law, the Roman Empire has a long tradition of law, and I guess we could just call it the Roman Law. In fact, so profound has its influence been on Western civilization that many of our legal terms today come from Latin.
