I still crave to be king of Earth, or the term emperor sounds amazing as well. I will dominate this earth killing any and everything in my path. I plan to build and recruit as much as I can.

Only a select few seen me rage and it wasn’t pretty at all. I feel that I’m gaining and losing myself everyday. I feel like…

He was born on February 27th, 272 A.D and died on May 22nd, 337 A.D. Constantine ruled from 306 A.D to 337 A.D. Constantine’s intense…
Constantine was one of the greatest emperors during the time of the Roman Empire. Christianity helped the Roman empire from not collapsing and Constantine found a way to improve both Christianity and Rome. Christianity took the blame for all problems the empire faced, Constantine was a great ruler and was the reason Rome was saved, and Constantine brought Rome and Christianity together by making it the religion of Rome.
