''1. Who is your favorite Roman emperor, and why?''  

My favorite Emperor was Constantine I, the first Christian Emperor of Rome (ruled 306 to 337AD). His conversion was a big turning point for Christianity because because he not only reversed the persecutions of his predecessor, Diocletian, but issued the Edict of Milan, which allowed Christianity to spread throughout the Roman Empire. Constantine also made other big changes to the Roman Empire. He established Byzantium as the new imperial residence “Constantinople”, and also fortified many cities in the Empire, and suppressed many civil wars.

''2. Describe what the Roman Republic and the Roman Empire were, including approximate dates.'' The Roman Republic was when the senate had more power and there was no emperor. But the Roman Empire was started after the assassination of Caesar (in 44 B.C). and the civil war, when Octavian made a deal with the senate that made Octavian an emperor, and started the Roman Empire.
