 Roman Emperors - DIR Theodosius I
This was the only charge which Theodosius could seriously have held against him in 383, that he had risen to power through the assassination of a legitimate emperor.
A substantial number of Gothic troops defected to the side of Magnus Maximus when Theodosius joined his forces with those of the young Valentinian II at Thessalonica in 387 in preparation for their joint campaign westwards against Maximus.
This ensured a continuity of policy which saw the emergence of Nicene Christianity as the orthodox belief of the vast majority of Christians throughout the middle ages.

 THEODOSIUS (I.-III.) - LoveToKnow Article on THEODOSIUS (I.-III.)
Important as the reign of Theodosius was from the political point of view, it is perhaps still more so from the theological.
A Hunnish invasion in 408 was skilfully repelled, but from 441 the Balkan country was repeatedly overrun by the armies of Attila, whose incursions Theodosius feebly attempted to buy off with ever-increasing payments of tribute.
The same year saw the revolt of Maximus in Britain and the murder of Gratian.

 Theodosius I - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Theodosius accompanied his father to Britannia to help quell the Great Conspiracy in 368.
Theodosius had just been baptized, by bishop Acholius of Thessalonica, during a severe illness, as was common in the early Christian world.
For the first part of his rule, Theodosius seems to have ignored the semi-official standing of the Christian bishops; in fact he had voiced his support for the preservation of temples or pagan statues as useful public buildings.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Theodosius I
As soon as he came to Constantinople Theodosius began expelling the Arians, who had hitherto been in possession.
Theodosius the son distinguished himself in the army, was made Dux of Moesia, defeated the Sarmatians (Ammianus Marcellinus, XXIX, 6); then, when an intrigue brought about the disgrace and execution of his father (376) he retired to his own property in Spain.
Theodosius married Galla (daughter of Valentinian I) after the death of his first wife, and by her had a daughter, Galla Placidia, the mother of Valentinian III.

 Christian History - Theodosius I - 131 Christians Everyone Should Know
Arians and Manichaeans (dualists) were condemned and driven underground.
In 380 he proclaimed himself a Christian of the Nicene Creed, and he called a council at Constantinople to put an end to the Arian heresy (which, contrary to Nicene doctrine, claimed Jesus was created), which had divided the empire for over half a century.
Later Roman historians, like Zosimus, looked back on this Christianization of the empire as the cause for the fall of Rome (a charge Augustine refuted in his City of God).

 The Ecole Glossary
In 380, he issued an edict stating that only those who believed in the Nicene Creed were to be considered Catholic Christians.
After his conflict with the pagans, Theodosius became ill and died in 395.
In 381, he established a treaty of alliance with the Visigoths, who had been invading areas of the empire since 375.

 Emperor Theodosius I *The Great*
His parents were probably already Christians when Theodosius grew up in Spain.
Quarrels between his second wife, Galla, and his son Arcadius, as well as his own view of the eastern capital as the centreof the empire, prompted Theodosius to move his residence back to Constantinople in November 391.
The Bishop required him to do public penance to which, as a devout Christian, Theodosius acceded, but only after pointing out that he was not willing to grant the Bishop greater.

 Justinian I - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
He believed in a Mediterranean wide Christian order politically, religiously and economically, united and ruled from Constantinople under a single Christian emperor.
He was the last emperor to attempt to restore the Roman Empire to the territories it enjoyed under Theodosius I.
He was a man of unusual capacity for work (sometimes called the "Emperor Who Never Sleeps"), and possessed a temperate, affable, and lively character; but was also unscrupulous and crafty when it served him.

She had great personal influence over her son, but she was forced to leave the government largely in the hands of Aetius.
After the murder (415) of Ataulf she was at first ill-treated but was returned in 416 to her brother Honorius.

 379 Theodosius I
The first had to do with his requiring the bishop of Callinicum to restore a Jewish synagogue which Christians of his diocese had destroyed, a just requirement but Ambrose told him Christians could not build a temple for another religion, and Theodosius gave in, but Ambrose suggested no other solution.
For this Ambrose made him do public penance, which Theodosius did.

 First Council of Constantinople - 381
In the year 380 the emperors Gratian and Theodosius I decided to convoke this council to counter the Arians, and also to judge the case of Maximus the Cynic, bishop of Constantinople.
This course would leave the churches entirely exposed, just as they are beginning their renewal; and it is completely out of the question for the majority.
Already from 382 onwards, in the synodical letter of the synod which met at Constantinople, the council of Constantinople was given the title of "ecumenical".

Ambrose and his suffragans by showing the record of his consecration, with letters which Peter had once written in his behalf.
Nothing further came of it; perhaps, says Tillemont, those who thus wrote in favour of Maximus "reconnurent bientot quel il etait" (ix., 502): so that when a Council did meet at Rome towards the end of 382, no steps were taken in his behalf.
Whatever may be said of the meeting of bishops at which this canon was enacted, this is clear, no mention was made of the Roman Pontiff, nor of the Council of Sardica, as Fleury notes in his Histoire Ecclesiastique, Lib.

 Ancient History Sourcebook: Theodoret: St. Ambrose Humiliates Theodosius the Great.
In consequence of sedition there, the anger of the Emperor [Theodosius] rose to the highest pitch, and he gratified his vindictive desire for vengeance by unsheathing the sword most unjustly and tyrannically against all, slaying the innocent and guilty alike.
It is said seven thousand perished without any forms of law, and without even having judicial sentence passed upon them; but that, like ears of wheat in the time of harvest, they were alike cut down.

 Theodosius I
Following Theodosius' abolition of the Olympic games (391) and other pagan relics, and his defeat of the last protagonist of a pagan revival, Eugenius (394) - Christianity gets entrenched for good, with various heresies like Arianism dismissed.
Theodosius' progressive civil legislation gets advertised here with a claim to a "restoration" of the Republic (and presumably its values), with the suggestive scene of the Emperor helping a kneeling woman get up.
While adherence to strict religious themes makes later Byzantine issues more subtle in this respect, reverse types of this era were often directly used for this purpose.

 G4 - Feature - The Olympic Games
The Games were held every four years for a period of nearly 1200 years until they were abolished by the Roman emperor Theodosius I in 393 CE.
Fast forward to the nineteenth century, when Frenchman Pierre de Coubertin tried to get France interested in sports by starting a sports organization in 1890.
In that first Olympics, only one event was held, and all participants competed in the standard uniform of the day--their birthday suit.

When, in 379, Illyricum was detached from the Western Empire, Damasus hastened to safeguard the authority of the Roman Church by the appointment of a vicar Apostolic in the person of Ascholius, Bishop of Thessalonica; this was the origin of the important papal vicariate long attached to that see.
