How was Christianity treated in the Roman Empire?

Answer:
At first, it was persecuted as weakening the position of the political leaders and their own gods. It gradually gained acceptance and was finally integrated into the political structure. Although Rome fell, the Byzantine Empire continued the religious role in the functioning of the state, as did the later Holy Roman Empire of Europe.
